I am an unstoppable force
Let the melanin in my skin tell a story
A story of triumph
Call me EBONY

Let my wild roots be my crown
Framing my face with pride
Kinky and strong
Call me EBONY

I AM History
Years of struggle
A moment of change
Call me EBONY

The scars from society color me
They wrap me in a sheet of stereotypes
Judged
Call me EBONY

But I am not what you put to me
I am not the loudness you put in my mouth
I am not the ignorance you put to my presence
But you can still call me EBONY

Believe what you want
However you wish to see me
Just don't forget-
Call me EBONY
