My Black is beauty

My black is beauty
Inside and out
Do you see my shiny Brown skin
My hair is so thick and beautiful
They judge me by my color, hair and clothes, but little do they know my black is beauty
They are intimidated by my knowledge and thoughts.
The way I carry myself scares them to death
My black is beauty
I smile at all times from ear to ear
My goals are over and beyond their expectation.
In their minds how can a little black girl carry herself with so much class.
Hey did you hear my black is beauty.
Never judge a book by its cover just know your black is always beauty.

Self-belief is self-awareness is self-confidence is self-improvement
is self-satisfaction. ?
