Growin’ up in JA when I look aroun’
Most people skin was a shade of brown
Yeah yuh have yuh whiteys parrin too
But Mama Africa mek ar mark here too
Me I got that cool dark skin ooo
Melanin poppin’ poppin’ right tru
African Queen all eyes on me
Fulla melodies an mi skin well clean
They said
We were worthless we don’t feel no pain
They held us down and kept us locked in chains
But now we’ve found our confidence again
So I say
Black Girl
Know that you’re a queen
Black girl
Show off wid yuh melanin
That skin that you are in
There’s so much strength within
So breathe in
Black Girl
Know that you’re a queen
Black girl
Show off wid yuh mеlanin
That skin that you are in
There’s so much strеngth within
So breathe in
Keep ya head up high aim for the sky
Nuh mek nobody try an dull your shine
Yuh skin is truly a golden view
Beauty on the inside and outside too
Yeah we got that cool dark skin ooo
Melanin poppin’ poppin’ right tru
All eyes on us when we walk through
