Made in the beautiful struggle You are here
Made of light You are near
Black boy.
May the world know You and all Your wonders
Make magic with Your body
Make music with Your hands
Change directions with Your feet
For You are light
And cannot be dimmed.
Mother Nature has birthed You for a reason.
Father Time has blessed You with the ability to move,
At Your will.
Believe me.
No man has ever stopped You.
Your foremother says You can move.
Your body is indestructible. Your mind is beautiful.
Black boy You are light.
Made in the beautiful struggle You are here
Made of light You are near
Black girl.
they may taunt You for Your blues
Or the different hues
You exude.
they can not stop Your shine.
Move in all ways that You wish.
Take comfort in Your emotions.
Show them all
For You are beauty in all ways.
The world would stop without You.
You, move about, shout, demand, direct, convict, with grace and greatness,
You are worthy and more.
That they can not ignore.
You are precious and needed.
Together,
You were made in the beautiful struggle.
You are here,
Made of light You are near.
