The beauty of me is simply me being me and today I want to give  a boost to all the people out there who have been regarded as black sheeps.Here is one of my rap poems which speaks out aloud proclaiming the beauty of blackness. Please write your comments if you feel inspired or anything else for that matter.





           BLACK BEAUTY
Black is the colour of energy,
Look at how industrialized the nations can be,
they boast on the level of their economy,
The foundations of our people of slavery.
  
   Am black, you're black,
   Everything is black.
   Don't feel so bad about being black,
   Am here to raise your self esteem,
   Black is beauty is the song I sing.

Black diamonds in Nigeria,
Mined by foreign countries,
So serious,
Big ships, big cars they sell to us but they ride on us,
They ride on Africa.

 Am black, you're black,
Everything is black.
Don't feel so bad about being black,
Am here to raise your self esteem,
Black is beauty is the song I sing.

Black is the colour of uncouth magic,
What about the chemicals they sell to us?
Lung cancer, brain cancer, unless am wrong,
From the black big forest our life prolongs.

  Am black, you're black,
Everything is black.
Don't feel so bad about being black,
Am here to raise your self esteem,
Black is beauty is the song I sing.

Black is the colour of education,
From the blackboard, welcome manifestation,
Ask queen Sheba, Timbuktu too,
That's our character, no matter your view.

  Am black, you're black,
Everything is black.
Don't feel so bad about being black,
Am here to raise your self esteem,
Black is beauty is the song I sing.

My brother the colour is not incidental,
Obama looks so presidental,
Wangari Maathai environmental,
Now does it seem so coincidental.
