Remember My Name
You can walk on me, spit in my face, and put me down
And I still won't frown
I'm an intelligent african-american queen
I don't have time for people
Who waste their time disrespecting me
Because I know who I am and I know where I'm going
Not scared to look back
And I'm always looking foward
I refuse to be an overnight celebrity or a one-hit-wonder
I'ma have an impact on the world
LIke the sound of thunder
You may think you're killing me softly
But your words don't affect me
I try not to notice you
Because you're not on the same level as me
Losing loved ones may hurt
And you may have a struggle getiing through it
But it's those struggles that make you stronger
It's those struggles that make you a better person
It's those struggles that made me who I am today
Those struggles allows my voice to be heard
It allows me to stand up for what I believe in
For what I think is right for what I think is wrong
So remember my name
You may not hear it on the radio
And you may not see it on t.v.
But remmeber it because
It might be you looking up to me
