Golden Brown

You compared my skin to dirt,

My momma raised me a golden child;

So excuse me if my feelings ain’t hurt

I wear God’s armor like a chosen style.

A rich chocolate I prefer, golden brown.

Now you see how I feel about me,

You should know opinions don’t count.

I’m confident, warm like a mother bear

Who earned her place and does not fear

I’m swollen like the fur she wears,

Golden like a cute cub bear

Yeah! My skin is fierce!

A golden brown hershey bar,

Know that quality is rare, some people

Hate it, but I don’t care;

Cause I strut my stuff, so

Try and top me if you dare!
