If you are female
If your skin is Black

If you are poor
but rich with life

If you have experienced death
of someone you love

If your life has been interrupted
with no just cause

If the tears you cry come no more
If your heart have a feeling that
you never felt before

If your body is changing
and you can’t understand

If your memory is fading
so you write it down

If the song in your voice
need to be heard

If your performance in life
could light up the stars

If you have something you just have to say
You just go girl ‘cause today is your day
