...by Poetic Tee "Here, take a sip"
Just 'cos you are light skin
Doesn't make you a queen.
Doesn't make you a queen.
In fact, you can be any color
Blue, brown, yellow or green.
Blue, brown, yellow or green.
If flaunting pride's your game
Go on, how often is time mean.
Go on, how often is time mean.
Respect you desire to earn
Faking smiles behind a screen.
Faking smiles behind a screen.
Stand up like a he, though a she
Barely can you, all bare and lean.
Barely can you, all bare and lean.
Fading grace, draining beau
You go being it once, sixteen.
You go being it once, sixteen.
Look twice as beautiful, try hard
Oho dai, now a mama to a teen.
Oho dai, now a mama to a teen.
Ride a ride, made of gold of old
Wear atampa, lace, why not satin?
Wear atampa, lace, why not satin?
Grey, hey! Stay longer you can't
You're only human, not a jinn.
You're only human, not a jinn.
Life's for living till it comes
Then your breathe heads home, fin.
Then your breathe heads home, fin.
