I'm proud to be Black!
from my wide nose
to my full lips
from the texture of my kinky hair
to my full hips
Do you know how proud I am?
that my blackness is intricately woven
into the fabric of man
I've tilled his earth
and invented his name
I've built his hearth
and contributed to his fame
I'm proud to be black!
be it known or not
the world is lucky, my blackness
is something that they've got!
