Yes I am African
My skin is caramel brown
My sister's skin is caramel yellow
My brother's skin is midnight black
But we are all black
We are black not only in our complexion but our inheritance

Yes I am African
I inherited my grandmother's beautiful long legs
I inherited her sensual curves
Her beautiful round face
Her luscious lips and her dimples
Most importantly I inherited her strength, her loving heart,her black so yes I am black

Yes I am African
I inherited my grandfathers shoulders
His beautiful set of teeth
I inherited his weird feet
I inherited his sense of humor
Most of all I inherited his leardership spirit,his sense of humanity and his need to protect, his black which is why I am black

Yes I am African
I am the daughter of the great warriors, a born fighter
My blood is blue because of this inheritance
My love of peace is my birthright
My mind is my greatest weapon not by my own choice but by the choice of my forefathers
I have inherited my happiness
I have inherited my peace
I have inherited my black
I may not have had a choice but I wouldn't have it any other way
