Beautiful Black Child

You are darker than the night
But your future is brighter than the light
I never knew that you were so ashamed
You black and beautiful but you said I ain't right
Your black skin goes well with your natural hair
Be proud of your color and you never show fear

And you are the type I show interest in

Yoh always wanna look lighter I don't know why you do that
And it's up to you but I'd rather see you natural
The weaves beautiful but I'd rather see your Afro
Girl you so fine
But you deny it
Because you so insecure they told you lies
You wanna change because of society's expectations
Made you not think highly of your shade
I wish I had your eyes then I would see why your beauty's oblivious to you
Cause girl you beautiful
Your blackness lights up my world every time
And girl I truly mean it I ain't telling white lies ey
You ain't gotta make up the beauty that you blessed with
You are God's creation and he sees you as perfection
Never let discrimination lead you to depression
You ain't gotta change because your nature is the fashion
Man I like my girls black I ain't throwing shade
And you know they got that and they got the brains
Flow like the oceans and they gonna make waves
I just need your confidence in the right place

I like it whenever you show
Your natural hair like your Afro or dreads yeah
And girl that puts me in the zone
