lyrics

JAMIL HONESTY (RAP):
BLACK ORCHID GREW IN HOOD AS A BLACK ORPHAN
SHE IS A FLOWER THAT TOWERS OVER THE FORCES
THAT TRY TO KEEP HER FROM SEEING THE WORLD THAT SEGREGATED
SHE SEPARATED HER LEAVES ARE MELANATED
BLACK CHILD ROMIN THE CITY OF ILLADELF
SCOFFERS THEY HAUNT HER THEY WANT HER TO KILL HERSELF
GHETTO HABITAT PLACES THAT LACK IN MENTAL HEALTH
SHE HAS HER MIND AND HER SPIRIT WHICH IS HER WEALTH
INTELLIGENT SCHOLARS THEY'RE MARVELING AT HER MELANIN
SHE'S LOOKING LIKE THE MESSIAH REGAL AND ELEGANT
NEVER HAD A FATHER TO CALL ON SO SHE WOULD SELF DEFEND
AND LET THE PEOPLE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT SHE REPRESENTS
DAUGHTER OF ZION AND LIONESS WHO WILL NEVER BEND
TO WHAT YOUR SAYING NEGATIVE SHE WILL FOREVER WIN
SHE HAD A DAUGHTER SHE TAUGHT HER TOO TO NEVER CRINGE
ALWAYS BEING COMFORTABLE IN THE SKIN YOU LIVING IN WORD

MONIQUE HARCUM:
(VERSE)
WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL
MAMA TAUGHT ME HOW TO LIVE IN THIS CRUEL WORLD
AND LIFE WAS HARD LIVING IN THE SKIN I’M IN
SO I HAD TO LEARN TO FIGHT
FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND
STAND UP TALL AND IF I’D FALL
I’D GET BACK UP, BACK ON MY FEET AGAIN
YOU’D THINK WITH TIME IT CHANGED
BUT SOME THINGS STAY THE SAME
LIKE WE’RE STUCK ON REPEAT YA’LL
‘CAUSE WE BURIED IT DEEP YA’LL
THIS PAIN AND MISERY
JUST WON’T LET ME BE
BUT I GROW STRONGER EVERYDAY
AND I’M HERE TO SAY
(HOOK)
YOU CAN’T BREAK ME- ‘CAUSE I LEARNED TO BEND
YOU CAN’T SHAKE ME- SOLID GROUND I STAND
YOU WON’T MAKE ME- QUESTION WHO AM,
YOU CAN’T!
YOU MIGHT HURT ME- WITH YOUR HATEFUL WORDS
BUT IT WON’T TAKE- TAKE AWAY MY WORTH
YOU CAN’T BREAK ME- NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY
YOU CAN’T!
(VERSE)
YEARS LATER NOW MY BABY GIRL’S
GROWING UP DIFFERENT TIME BUT THE SAME OLD WORLD
AND LIFE IS HARD LIVING IN THE SKIN SHE’S IN
SO, SHE GOTTA
LEARN TO FIGHT
FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND
STAND UP TALL AND IF SHE FALLS I
HELP HER UP, BACK ON HER FEET AGAIN
YOU’D THINK WITH TIME IT CHANGED
BUT SOME THINGS STAY THE SAME
LIKE WE’RE STUCK ON REPEAT YA’LL
‘CAUSE WE BURIED IT DEEP YA’LL
THIS PAIN AND MISERY
JUST WON’T LET HER BE
BUT SHE GROWS STRONGER EVERYDAY
AND SHE’S HERE TO SAY
(REPEAT HOOK)
(BRIDGE)
IT BREAKS MY HEART
JUST ONE LOOK IS ALL IT TAKES
YOUR OPINION OF ME IS FILLED WITH HATE
BUT I’M NOT ALONE
LIKE MY MOTHERS’ MOTHER BEFORE ME
I AM GENERATIONS STRONG
(REPEAT HOOK)
