Little black girl

Run and touch the sun

It’s gonna leave a big scar

But so is the earths soil that you walk upon

Down here they’ll pull out your insecurities

And let white women make them into purer things

Down here in this hell

Darling we are the real minorities

We'll never know true love without spite

Not even our own mothers know how to love us right

She has every intention to belittle you

But don’t you dare say that she offended you

On your behalf that’s disrespectful now

She gave you your god given rights

So she owns you, your dreams, and yo life

Little compliant black girl

Don’t lose yourself over that man

No matter what game he plays

It’s always an extra card in his hand

Another way for him to advance

And another woman that he’d choose over you

Without even slightly raising his head

Little irrelevant

Unnecessary

black girl

They don’t care about your tears

And those pretty little fears

They pay no mind to hear

You’re the least of their worries

No use in trying to express how you feel

Anytime you bring up your pain

They in a rush to tell you that it ain’t real

Little unworthy unproductive black girl

Why don’t you go do something with yourself

You’re below average compared to your sisters

In looks, knowledge, and wealth

And yeah you try but does it really matter

They tell you that your getting nowhere

Let everything you worked for shatter

Little naive black girl

You don’t even attempt to think for yourself

Think you know it all

But you speaking the ideas of somebody else

Little angry black girl

Can’t you see that you’re unprotected

Show the most respect

just to be disrespected

You keep your cool

Realign your peace

Cause at the end of the day you know

They can’t see what you see

Little beautiful black girl

They aren’t going to acknowledge all that you do

You know who you are

Don’t let them put you in some shoes

Capture your own stars

And live in your reality

The world gone really hate you now

You got that strong mentality

Little happy black girl

I see you

praying, hoping, dying, wishing

Little black girl dying with too much intuition

A waste of ambition

Sitting all casket pretty

I guess they think that image of you is fittin
