I am a proud black woman!
My skin sparkles like a beach before sunlight,
my radiance sharpens the beauty of my eyeballs,
Have you seen my legs?
Smooth, silky, shiny, straight and sturdy.
I am a proud black woman!
I am superior to ultraviolet radiation,
I can sit in the sun and smile,
I am innocent of keratosis’ wrinkles and spots,
82 shall find me as agile as Iya Rainbow.
I am a proud black woman!
I am not transparent but opaque,
I jailed the possibility of cancer passing through me,
I have a strong and feasible hair scalp,
I do not turn red over heavy workloads.
I am a proud black woman!
I am the virgin colour,
never lose me to skin toning,
else, regression is only a second away,
and no way to recover virgin black is known by any.
