Where in the world do they love a black girl for being herself? 

You ain’t suppose to wear red lipstick and oh you ain’t suppose to smile in public because the gap between yo teeth ain’t perfect you ain’t suppose to dream at all and you ain’t suppose to be more than a girlfriend because where in the world do they love a black girl for being herself? 

 


Black girl you ain’t suppose to love yourself black girl do more for yourself black girl allow yourself to be mistreated black girl allow yourself to be misleading black girl Oh! Black girl how much do you love yourself, I stand to bare witness that black girl magic is BLACK GIRL MAGIC 

 


How sweet is the sound of black girl magic the way we sing amazing grace knowing that don’t nobody do it like we do boo cause just incase we run away the amazing grace never fades away GOD GOT MY PLACE 

 


Fat girl your not good enough fat girl you ain’t hood enough but when we show up we show out cause when that SINGLE release oh issa wrap now to him im the truth but to him imma lil loose but oh to him im the queen with everything inbetween the lust across my lips & the touch of my finger tips the mind of mlk with a touch of malcom so free that i feel im climbing a mountain the spirit of ms. Maya angelo that is..... so now you see what really gives this black girl magic the freedom to live but i mean where in the world do they love a black girl for being herself.

This free verse is based upon the natural view of most women and teen girls who feel like they aren't good enough but at some point grow a voice and expess themselves and compare themselves to well know famous people and bounce back off that.
