My black is intriguing
But underestimated and unappreciated
My black is beautiful
But frowned upon and unusual
My black is lovely
But neglected and beaten bloody
My black is proud
But muffled and shuffled by our own government
My black is God
But suppressed and oppressed
My black is sun kissed melanin
But is shamed and rearranged
My black is knowledge
But unaccredited and unrespected
My black is peace
But subjected to war and slavery
My black is pure
But is abominated and segregated
My black is strength
But shown as impotent and delicate
My black is power
But victimized and compromised
Our black is elevated, emancipated, joint together in formation
Feet planted taking back our nation
About the Creator

My dream is to share my thoughts, my dreams, and my heart with the world. Maybe I'll even inspire or help someone.
