365 and we still strive
The color of blackness The richness of our heritage Our convictions And the struggles and triumphs we faced
The soul of our people Lives on through us The descendants of strong and determined people For they were the one’s who paved the way
Racism Still overshadows our dreams Equality For to obtain these goals we still meet with defiance
Our pigmentation Is a documentation Of what our people as a whole Have been through in past and present society
Through the years We have had great leaders One’s who showed us the way Te who built a foundation for freedom and equality
Within this 21st century We still face hatred and brutality But it only makes us stronger in our beliefs That one day we shall overcome
The myths And stereotypes The negativity Only fuels the determination of our people
365 days black And through the years We come together as a proud and strong race As we build a foundation for future generations
365 days black….

IF ITS ONE THING THAT I LOVE TO BE ALL YEAR ROUND ITS BLACK. THOUGH WE HAVE BEEN FORCED TO HAVE A FALSE ADDORATION FOR OURSELVES WE STILL CAN APPRECIATE OUR DETERMINATION FOR GREATNESS. WELL PUT POET.
