In a crowd or any color,
may it be red, blue, or even white,
Black always stands out.
When aligned with any color,
may it be brown, yellow, or even gold,
Black always fits in.
When combined with any color,
may it be orange, grey, or even violet
Black always makes a significant change.
When polished it’s beautiful,
when dull it shows no signs of being so.
Black is powerful,
Take pride in your gift — the gift or melanin.

In a crowd or any color,
may it be red, blue, or even white,
Black always stands out.
When aligned with any color,
may it be brown, yellow, or even gold,
Black always fits in.
When combined with any color,
may it be orange, grey, or even violet
Black always makes a significant change.
When polished it’s beautiful,
when dull it shows no signs of being so.
Black is powerful,
Take pride in your gift — the gift or melanin.
