I'm loud
I'm not proud
I'm not proud to be black
I wanted to be born white
I want my hair permanent straight
without relaxer or hot combing.
I can't be white I want to be lighter skinned.
I want my skin bleached and
I want to be lighter brown like white men like.
I want blue eyes
I want green eyes
I want to be pretty no ugly
I want contacts and hate my glasses.
I hate me and want to be white
I wish I wish I wish but wish
