Sapphire |
| Sapphire |
| Black as night, good as gold |
| Whether young, whether old |
| Sapphire |
| Sapphire |
| When I’m watching you dance, I fall in a trance |
| Take me higher |
| History knows that when you were a child |
| You were the queen of the Egyptian Nile |
| Kings at your feet and people doing the same |
| Calling on Isis and screaming your name |
| Queen of Sheba called Makeba, Cleopatra |
| They were all Sapphires |
| Sapphire |
| So damn strong, so damn proud |
| How you stand out in a crowd |
| Sapphire |
| Sapphire |
| From your womb, then came me |
| And your love set me free |
| Desire |
| History knows that when you came to be |
| You were the reason so many are free |
| Standing for justice and singing out loud |
| Screaming for freedom, you’re Black and you’re proud |
| Harriett Tubman, Barbara Jordan, Rosa Parks |
| They were all Sapphires |
| Sapphire |
| Sapphire |
| Sapphire |
| Sapphire |
| This song is dedicated to all the Black women of the world |
| You are all precious jewels |
| Like Sapphire |
