Sep 5, 2018 · 1 min read
Breaking barriers with words and deeds
planting seeds in minds
shaking foundations to the core
reaching more and more souls
as you RISE so RISE we
people kissed by the SUN
we bow and acknowledge ancestors sweet caress
in the way that you do what you do
We celebrate YOU
Beautiful Black Woman
Gifted and strong
Worthy of all praise
Wisdom that rights wrongs
Anthem to every song
You lift generations
steady feeble hands with grace
head held high
facing ignorance with pride
they step aside
illuminated by your strength
dignity and style
your values you defend
your talents a unique blend
Beautiful Black Woman
Gifted and strong
Worthy of all praise
Wisdom that rights wrongs
Anthem to every song.
