Black Woman, mother of my earth Black Woman, you gave me birth You can truly see what's in me You can help me be the best that I can be You feed my fire when I'm on the wire Keepin' me calm when it's gettin' higher Sweet like sugar and hot like wine Always keepin' ya on my mind You're givin' my life a new light to reach for Giving me so much how could I ask for more Keepin' us tight when we're gettin' loose The darker the berry the sweeter the juice Black Woman Recess You started out just a little girl Given the power to change the world And though some of your ways to man are odd You are the proof that there is a God Black Woman ya are the mother of all Black Woman ya stand so firm and tall And as you aged mind body and soul You became more beautiful You are the Future you are the Wisdom The Wisdom that the evil Forces tried to hide But no longer will you be hidden In my Jungle you will always exist Your wish is my command Yo command is my wish And the job of the Man is to respect Protect be fruitful and multiply Honor and love love and honor Until the Day She Dies Black Woman Recess Love the woman's weapon With every great man there's a woman behind him Her womb is the chamber that produces life Her breast provides the nutrition for growth A guardian angel in the flesh Representin' the man that watches over us both Sent from the Heavens and the sky above Black Woman it's you that I love You are the Moon that I reach for There's no doubt in my mind that it's you I adore Sent from the Heavens and the skies above Black Woman it's you that I love
