I am proud I am African
Hoping to hold my hazel head high
Camp my chin comfortable
Over that which it lies
Upon all the volumes of virtues set out
Downing doubt to raise esteem
Lifting hopes and healing dreams
Of they who are deemed dirty
Or assumed as just unworthy
Which absurdly abominates
Black beauty
For those that see me here see
Dark coffee dreams coated all on me
Shining sunlight from my face
Little girl in lady grace
In case you couldn't quite capture me
My shape is forever frozen
In indefinite eternity
in a feeling part of you
Proud to be with mejust unworthy
Which absurdly abominates
Black beauty
For those that see me here see
Dark coffee dreams coated all on me
Shining sunlight from my face
Little girl in lady grace
In case you couldn't quite capture me
My shape is forever frozen
In indefinite eternity
in a feeling part of you
Proud to be with me
