Nothing more beautiful
The truth of the matter is
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
Whether five-two or six-seven,
Yellow fabulous or chocolate heaven,
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
Long and lean
With deep brown eyes
Wavy hair or dreds
With strong thick thighs
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
Bald head with goatee,
Cornrows or a fade
A little thick, a little thin
Oh, the choices to be made
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
Scholarly or not
Wall Street or hip hop
I'll sing your praises
To the mountain top.
Head of the home
Provider and lover
Obedient son and loving brother.
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
A mighty protector you've proven to
be
Sacrificing your life to keep me
free.
Working for crumbs when the table is
bare.
Praising the Lord, leading the
family in prayer
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
Holding my hand when fear emerges.
Remaining faithful, suppressing your
urges.
Proving your strength by turning the
other cheek.
Having high hopes when the situation
is bleak.
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
Treating me like the queen I was
born to be.
Never disrespecting, dishonoring, or
disgracing me.
Giving me credit when it is due.
Oh, black man, how I honor you.
There is nothing more beautiful
than a black man.
