Francillia Fyffe - First Lady

first lady image

Walk black woman, walk with pride, talk black woman, talk don't hide.
Your femininity, your beautiful shape, your complexion that make up a rainbow.
You're a natural prophetess with kink in your hair, show Almighty God, Almighty God is near.
Shout his praises day after day, caress your happiness daily due and know they will come true, though struggling many endure, victory only a few will conquer.

Walk black woman, may your walk be strong, Clap your hands black woman, sing your lovely song.

Black woman carrying the burden. Why did God make you so strong?
Fighting hard to keep your children and brothers from doing wrong, fighting hard to keep them from singing that jailbird song.
Negative turns to positive, positive turns to negative or so it seems to be.

Black woman with voluptuous shapes, childbearing hips and curvaceous behind, maybe without child yet wisdom being very similar growing as you get older, so embrace it as you would a child.
What do you see for this life?
How much do you care for the next?

Delivering only comes through trying.
Negatives will always come through to you lying,
Trying to take you off your mercy way.
Always know there is a brighter day.
