LYRICS
African queen, dark skin
Soft eyes, gold light when you walk in
Tonight I sing you a love song
You deserve to hear beautiful things ‘cause
Most times when they speak on beauty
They don’t speak on girls from the dark side
Straight nose, long curls, full lips
Melanin glowing in the moonlight
Never seen nobody wear grace like you
Never seen sunlight move like you do
And every room gets still when you step in
Like the whole world pause just to let you through
Strong mind, soft touch
You don’t even know that you heal so much
Hard times never made you bitter
Still you smile and you lift everybody up
So when the little girls ask questions
Tell them beauty never needed blue eyes
Tell them queens come in deep brown skin
And magic lives in dark eyes
They never told us your skin was poetry
Never told us your glow was royalty
Never told us your hair like crowns
Never told us, never told us queens look like this
African queen
Your glow just like sunrise
Warm soul, pure heart
Light dancing in your brown eyes
African queen
Whole place change when you pass through
One touch, one smile
And the whole world wanna love you
Omuyandwa

Omuyandwa
You make me sing
Long days, late nights
Still you hold your head high through hard life
And even when the pressure gets heavy
You still move gentle and steady
Gold skin shining under low lights
Slow wine moving with the bassline
And your laugh got a melody
Could turn pain into a sweet rhyme
You don’t compete, never needed validation
Natural beauty without decoration
Confidence pure, no imitation
That’s the kind of love that causing vibration
And if ever you feel uncertain
If the world make you question your worth then
Look in the mirror and remember
Heaven took time when they made you
They never told us your skin was poetry
Never told us your glow was royalty
Never told us your hair like crowns
Never told us, never told us queens look like this
African queen
Your glow just like sunrise
Warm soul, pure heart
Light dancing in your brown eyes
African queen
Whole place change when you pass through
One touch, one smile
And the whole world wanna love you
Omuyandwa
Omuyandwa
Omuyandwa
Omuyandwa
Omuyandwa
Omuyandwa
I love you
