Little Brown Girl

Hey, there little brown girl
 I just want you to know
 That your hair and your lips and your skin
 Melanin, it's all beautiful
 Hey, there little brown girl
 I just want you to know
 It's okay for your nose to have a little bulge
 Ain't nothing wrong with having bigger nostrils
 Little brown girl
 You are so beautiful to me
 I hope you see
 Hey, there little brown girl
 I just want you to see
 That if your gums aren't pink
 And your edges aren't as sleek
 That don't mean you're any less pretty
 Hey, there little brown girl
 I just want you to see
 That you are a queen from your crown to your feet
 You are the essence of beauty
 Little brown girl
 You are so beautiful to me
 I hope you see
 To all my beautiful little brown girls
 Please know that you are strong enough to conquer the world
 And realize that you're melanated, educated, often imitated
 But you're never duplicated, so believe me when I say that
 You are powerful, you are worthy
 And if you're passionate, it doesn't mean you're angry
 So keep your head up and let your voice be heard
 'Cause you are everything and more that this world needs
 Little brown girls
 You are so beautiful to me
 I hope you see
 Hey, there little brown girl
 Can you do one last thing for me?
 Walk with grace, claim your space
 Don't you ever be ashamed
 And you'll shine and you're gonna be
 Happy in your skin
 Happy with your curves
 Happy that you can say words no longer hurt
 Happy with your smile
 Happy with your style
 Happy with your kinky curls
 Your blackness out in the world
 I hope you hear me, little brown girl
