The boxes we see. Black girls learn duality early, too early --
conflicts inside, conflicts outside --
some boxes are chosen for us --
being aware of boxes and escaping them are two different things --
The ones we don't. When do Black girls lose their childhood? --
Where is her safe space? --
Where can she be free? --
Where does she get to just be? --
boxes inside, boxes outside --
hypocrisy inside, hypocrisy outside --
Everybody wanna be Black until it's time to be Black --
And the ones we shed. be gentle on yourself --
be gently with yourself --
What if we could just be free? --
What if we could just be?
