I am a black girl 

A blueprint for others to copy

And claim as theirs

Being black can sometimes be unfair

A blueprint for others to copy 

Goes way far and beyond me

Like names such as Aaliyah, janet,Normani

Got many to thank that came before me

They aint seen another black queen like me.

Goes way far and beyond me

Hair,style, attitude just enough to show my gratitude 

From afar others adore me and see me in such a positive light

When I get mad they think I’m bout to strike

I fight for what I know is right

Hair, style,attitude just enough to show my gratitude 

Shits a struggle I can’t write this in a haiku

You point and laugh at what’s new yet follow what I do

You don’t give credit when it’s due

Shits a struggle I can’t write this in a haiku 

I wanna show the world what I can do

But am scared my work will fall in the hands of you and what’d you do

You tell a lie while everyone thinks it’s true 

When you get work from a trendsetter and blueprint

Things that ain’t you.
