Our crown

Our skin shines like gold A story waiting to be told Our eyes like chocolate And nothing can top that Our hair the halo we wear Whilst they stop and stare Totally unaware Of the black power we share Our skin loved by the sun Our beauty a vision We are golden Something that can't be stolen Our unity our treasure It fuels their displeasure Something that can't be taken Their egos mistaken Jealousy within their hearts As they witness our smarts They tried to break us down Please if history tought us anything They'd know we'd stand our ground It's why we wear our crowns It's why we smile while they frown
