Mirror


Look into the mirror
What do you see?
I see strong black women
I see doctors, chefs or teachers.

Look into the mirror
What do you see?
I see lawyers, consultants, and operators.

Now seriously look
And tell me what you see
I see a young generation of black women dieing
Because no took the time to lead us right

When you look into the mirror
What do you really see?
Do you see yourself?
Or
Do you see the world begging for help?

Check it this mirror is not just the one hanging on a wall
but it is one through your front door.
