They frowned apon my ebony skin
Picking and making fun
Told me I should run from the sun
That dark skin should make me feel ashamed
But yet I thought we are all the same
Was my skin not beautiful
Concealed by the ads that screams that it will make me beautiful make me light
But it's only what i defined what was beauty
Gave me little bit more sight
You don't have to be light a "redbone"
Or dark
I think being a woman of color already qualifies you to have it going on😍😍🤗
