Brown Skin Girl oh Brown Skin Girl how could it be that the land of the FREE enslaved you for your Brown Skin
The land of the FREE who could it be? AmeriKKKa 3 K's
Gun down at a routine traffic stop
Fatally shot in the middle of the night in your own home
Murdered in cold blood when all you had in your hand was a Green Tea Arrizona and bag of skittles
Shot dead while jogging
The land of the Free AmeriKKKa 3 K's has NEVER been FREE for those with my brown skin
Brown Skin Girl oh Brown Skin Girl made to think the ideal of true beauty is blonde hair blue eye's and pale skin
Brown Skin Girl you're to dark
Brown Skin Girl why is your hair so nappy
Brown Skin GIrl you're not good enough
Brown Skin Girl you can't have a seat at my table
Brown Skin Girl oh Brown Skin Girl see AmeriKKKa 3 K's will never see you as a equal but yet see you as a hashtag
Hashtag Kendrick Johnson
Hashtag Breonna Taylor
Hashtag Sandra Bland
Hashtag George Floyd
Hashtag Trayvon Martin
Hashtag Fred Hampton
Hashtag Emmett Till
Just to name of few of my brown skin people that AmeriKKKa 3 K's has took from us but let us not forget who we are the ORIGINAL man and woman we are Kings and Queens we come from greatness
Brown Skin Girl oh Brown Skin Girl you are GREAT , you are TALENTED , you are the ORIGINAL IMAGE OF BEAUTY Brown Skin Girl you are POWERFUL and don't you EVER forget it Brown Skin Girl you are the MOTHER OF ALL LIFE see
My brown skin is what they fear and the and the strength that it holds because it's somthing they will never have or never understand so my brown skin people stand tall hold your head up high and FIGHT for all of the brown skin people that can no longer fight
Brown Skin Girl oh Brown Skin Girl mother of all life here to take back all that was stolen from her and all lives that was taken by the hands of Amerikkka 3 K's

Hiding FacesThe face you see in front of you is far from the true face that lies beneath the surface of what you see |
The misleading truthI'm here now with a confused look on my face like What was real and what was true what was fake and what was lies Looking into his eye's I see the man I want him to be the man his words told me he could be See you told me you loved me See you told me you cared for me See you told me you wanted to be with me But to my reality You told her the same things you told me Now I'm sitting here trying to figure out What was real and what was true What was fake and what was lie's Those late nights of just kicking it like the old days you know those sweet high school days With no worries Those sweet gentle kisses from my lip's to my neck to my breast to my belly button Those warm touches that set my soul on fire Those nights of you holding me in your arms Was so far from real so far from truth But yet so close to fake so close to lie's See behind your eye's there's no love for me See behind your eye's there is no happy ending for you and me But yet behind your eye's is the misl... |
TrappedThe feeling of being trapped inside your own thoughts trapped inside yourself as a person with no way to get out like a door that's been nailed shut like a window with no way to open it the pain the hurt the tears like a sad song Stuck on Replay that sings your deepest fears you feel trapped inside your own thoughts as the sun still shines as the wind still blows as the water still flows you find yourself stuck stuck but still trying to feel still trying to get out of your own thoughts trapped with no way to get out the pain the hurt the tears painted on the wall for all to see reminds you of the feeling of being trapped inside your own thoughts trapped with no key to unlock the pain the hurt the tears you find yourself trapped |
HERYou think you know her the real her but what you don't know is the girl you see her to be the girl she shows the world is truly not her the girl with the pretty smile the girl with a joyful soul the girl with the pretty face the girl full of jokes and happiness the girl with the long hair down her back like the Caucasians is truly not her the girl who acts like she has it all the girl men break their necks to check out the girl that seems so happy with life is truly not her see as the old saying goes never judge a book by its cover if you were to judge her book by its cover without taking the time to read her book page by Page word by word chapter-by-chapter you would think you know her but the big question is how can anyone ever truly know a person if they don't even know them self the girl you see and think you know it's the girl she wants to be but don't know how to be now sit still with no noise and ease your mind as I read you a page out of her book her pretty smile hides he... |
