Black woman
 African woman
 Black woman
 African woman
 
 Strong woman
 ♪
 The black woman
 The pride of Africa
 Essence of life
 The first, the center, the last
 The beginning, the end
 A source of inspiration
 A source of humanity
 The beginning of life
 It be like say we don' forget, say
 Na' we who get am
 Na' because of us life be
 Without us, nothing works
 ♪
 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 no go let you speak
 Black woman na' black power
 I say God's own daughter
 Black woman na' black power
 Free God's own daughter
 She got the soul and the spirit
 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
 The victim of every battle
 I tell them how you conscious
 I tell them say you serious
 I tell them how you virtuous
 Say you priceless and you precious
 Ahhhh...
 Black woman no bleach your skin so
 (You be the heart of our land)
 Black woman, wear your Afro
 (You be the bless of the people)
 Black woman no bleach your skin so
 (You be the heart of our land)
 Black woman, wear your Afro
 (You be the bless of the people)
 You kill your skin if you go bleach so
 (You be the heart of our land)
 No lose yourself to TV picture
 (You be the bless of the people)
 You look good ina your Afro
 (You be the heart of our land)
 No lose yourself to foreign scripture
 (You be the bless of the people)
 Black woman, wear your Afro
 (You be the heart of our land)
 Black woman, no bleach your skin so
 (You be the bless of the people)
 Say, black woman, wear your Afro
 (You be the heart of our land)
 Black woman no bleach your skin so
 (You be the bless of the people)
 You kill your skin if you go bleach so
 (You be the heart of our land)
 No bleach your skin for nobody
 (You be the bless of the people)
 I say this one's for you
 (Black woman)
 She fight for every little thing wey she get
 (Black woman)
 She struggle for every little thing wey she be
 (Black woman)
 She struggle to go school, she struggle to vote
