Brown girl speak
Tick tock goes the clock
Beep beep starts my day
Brown girl wake
Brown girl dress
Paint your face, comb your hair
Thin your lips and loosen your kinks
Brown girl step
Brown girl move
Dont be too early and dont dare be late
But just so you know not early enough counts as late
Prepare for this scheduled meeting that may be cancelled and then rescheduled abruptly
Be assertive but dont speak
Be confident without being assertive
Be creative but flexible and insecure
I want to mold you but already have a shape to work with
Brown girl speak to me but not too loud
Not too soft not too proud
