Lyrics Black Woman - Seun Kuti, Egypt 80

Black Woman

Black woman
African woman
Strong woman
I write this song for you
(Black woman)
And I see everything you go through
(Black woman)
I see your tears and your joy and your pain and your fears
(Black woman)
And your strength to endure all the beatings and the war
(Black woman)
That’s why me respect you
and I believe in you and I see your struggle
I never fear your strength
I never say you weak
And when them fear your sense
them nor go let you speak
Black woman named black power
Black woman to the limit
(Black woman)
uhuhuh
I say this one’s for you
(Black woman)
She’s black to the limit all in her spirit
(Black woman)
You dey lose your soul if you lose your own
(Black woman)
I nor talk about your hair or your shoes or the clothes that you wear
(Black woman)
I talk about your mind
I talk about your courage
I dey talk about your strength
Your hopes and how you manage to achieve so much
when they give you so little
Caught in the vicious cycle
Victim of every battle
Ahhhh…
Black woman nor bleach your skin so…
