about

The title says it all :-)

lyrics

You're something like my mother
I love you like my wife
You fight me like my sister
But to you I owe my life
Cause you are the Garden of Eden
From your womb, the whole world is leaving
No matter what they say you are
And there is no distance near or far
Your composition's in the stars
You are a rocket taking off
We've never had a drought in your atmosphere
You sprinkle brown raindrops everywhere
Your fingerprint is right there

I do it for you sister
Black girl, Brown girl
We've gotta put on for you

This is not a song to talk about how you make me feel
Nah, this is a song to talk about you in all your glory
Black girl, Brown girl
This is a song that highlights the point that...
For many years they've talked about how big your lips were
And now they inject their mouth to make them look like yours
This is a song that highlights the point that
For so long they've said your butt was too big
Your thighs are too thick, but now
Everybody wants an implant to try to imitate yours
This song talking about the fact that for so long
People have made fun of your beautiful skin
Because it's quote-unquote too dark
Then turn around and do every kind of tan to look like...
Black girl, Brown girl

We don't show you how much we love you
I'm ashamed of that
We're gonna change that
Because the world is not worthy
That's a fact
Black girl, Brown girl
Double dutch Queen
Princess in Afro puffs
You've been kissed by the sun
And we're proud to be the children of its lust
I see you down in the Caribbean
I see you here in the states
Black girl, all through South America
I see you Black girl, Brown girl
Queen mother Afrika, you've birthed them all
You've sprinkled those brown raindrops everywhere
Your fingerprint is everywhere
