Stand Up Black Woman

If they called you black woman If they keep reminding you of your skin colour I know they said you are not beautiful enough I know they pointed fingers at you about that Tell them you are aware of that Tell them unique is never the same Get up and show them you 're good enough Good enough to be flexin' in your skin tone It's okay to be different it shows you are special It's okay to accept who you are , Because no rule said you are impossible Stand up black woman you are benevolent Stand up black woman and show your capabilities Stand up black woman and take up what belongs to u You choose who you want to be You choose how you want to be seen You are smart, unique and beautifully made You are full of dignity and determination Keep yourself strong and not afraid of the world. Keep that chin up and head high because you are a blessing. DONE BY : MIRJAM EVALISTU
