[Intro]
Ooh
Ooh

[Verse 1: KIRBY]
Black woman
Unprotected in this world
Is she loved, is she treasured, is she hurt
Oh, black woman
Are you wanted in this world
Oh, black woman
Are you valued in this world

[Pre-Chorus: KIRBY]
They try to look you over like they don't care
They say they want your body, but not your hair
Oh, they tell you change your nose, keep your skin too fair
But everybody knows it, deep down they're scared

[Chorus: KIRBY]
'Cause oh, black girl
They owe you apologies
Oh, black girl
Don't give 'em your energy
You're the healer of the world
You're the healer of society
You're the healer of the world
You're the healer of society
[Verse 2: Rapsody]
Talk
They call it evening 'cause it's black as Eve
Mitochondrial gene
Rotating my behind, how it fit in my jeans
Black don't lack, Henrietta
I'm singing Erykah
Healer, I feel her
What's a king if he ain't got a Coretta
Ask Hakeem for a queen
He fight a lion
Y'all stay lying
Tryna lower our self esteem (Nah)
Feeling seen and unprotected
Brain washed brothers learn from the real ones that check you because they love us
How you hate someone that look like ya whole mother
Guess she shoulda used a rubber
But I don't judge her
Knowing each of us tryna make it
They take it
Too beautiful to change our faces (C'mon)
This beauty contagious, no cap
Braided our hair as a map to free them from racists
Innovative, nothing 'bout but this geneology basic
Where the roses, the applause
We deserve praises
Without a black woman you'd still be stuck inside the matrix. you know (You know)
[Chorus: KIRBY]
'Cause oh, black girl
They owe you apologies
Oh, black girl
Don't give 'em your energy
You're the healer of the world
You're the healer of society
You're the healer of the world
You're the healer of society
