Pretty Dark


I have pretty toes and pretty feet

I have pretty skin and pretty teeth

To my self I am sweet

But when I walk down the street

The calls go out to the brown girl beside me

Quarter White, Half Chinese, so that makes her elite


What about me? Am I not of royalty?

Descedant of queens, daughter of kings

My skin might be dark, but I am worthy

To change my complexion is not an option

So when I see you from a distance

I remind my self that I am whole not a fraction
