I've elevated
thinking
Awakened
Consciousness
Raised eyes to
creator
Found the true me.
I expand to reach
Higher self
Ascending in
galaxies
Unfolding the call
of
Divine femininity.
I found the true me
I big brown eyes
Curves in hips
Full lips
Booty jiggles
Manifested melanin
In freckles
Kinks in curls
Love the skin
I am in…
Found me
Me in banned
textbooks
Engraved on Egyptian
walls
Hidden in Demi-Gods
Traces of eraser
leave
Specks on
blackboards.
Intertwined cosmic
On Vatican Walls
Flow with Ocean
waves
Blows with wind
breeze
Discovered me.
I whitewashed
Deleted in history
Erased in Scared
text
Assassinated to
prevent,
Revealing
The Nicean Creed.
Raped
Molested
Ethnic Cleansing
Gentrification
Permed hair
Narrowed wide nose
Bleached skin
Reconnect with me.
I sing “we shall
overcome”
Because we are
awakening.
Afrika is rising
Ancestors are
speaking
Kings are leading
Queens are teaching
Children are
reaching
Higher heights in
history.
We found us.
We are building
Black love's uniting
Authors are scribing
Black
Is
Beautiful.
Our history
revealing
itself.
Hidden Colors
Translucent through
white walls.
“Brown skin's”
back in.
Afro puffs increasing
Awareness rising
Drum calls
Synchronizing
paths.
We found our true
selves.
Heart beat in-sync
Love manifesting
Knowledge increasing
“Power to the
people”
Is not just a chant
But a lifestyle.
Group Economic
practiced
Parents are active
Teaching African
centered
Curriculum.
Found Us.
Collectively
agreeing
Differences aside
Unifying one tribe
We found each other.
Thus finding
ourselves.
I raised my eyes and
saw you.
My brother and
Sister
I've found myself
In you
