lirik lagu ororo munroe – superhero
[verse: blaque]
being a black woman is
constantly being told that
you’re never enough
you’re not attractive unless you fit the eurocentric beauty standard
you’re too incompetent to make the same amount as your co-workers
any intense emotion you feel
is attacked and devalued
being a black woman is
being born into a world
knowing you’ll never be able reach the standard
being unique enough to reinvent
a culture that was stolen from you
being beautiful enough to be envied and replicated
being smart enough to become the fastest growing demographic
for graduating college with a bachelor’s degree
being ambitious enough
to be the number one demographic in entrepreneurship
and also being maternal enough to raise everyone’s family
being a black woman is
being forced into an unrealistic sense of loyalty to black men
and then we raise them
care for them
and support them
just for them to treat us
just as bad as the rest of the world does
you fathers, your brothers
your cousins, your friends
but in the end
we don’t need your love to prosper
that’s what makes us magical
and that’s what makes us superheroes
cue confetti
[outro]
(stay awhile longer sweet tongue of fur and feather
there is a white breast
waiting for you here…
between the superheroes)
