Confidence

[Intro]
Mulher negra
Forte e sem limite, a gente não merecemos você
Mesmo em sua divinidade, você é humilde

[Verse 1]
I just need you to know that, girl
As hard as it's been to grow, we’ve got to grow together
We been through sun, rain, and snow
And only one thing changes, all this information
It's not your fault
That some things that you want
Seem so far out of reach
But you just have to see
That you can have anything you want
And everything you need
We could be strong together
If we just come together

[Chorus]
Black girl
You've gotta have confidence
And it feels like we’ve only got ourselves
And it seems like there's no one there to help
Confidence (Oh yeah, black girl, uh)

[Verse 2]
Do you remember all of the times that, girl
You thought you were goin' out of your mind?
There's no one that's goin' harder
Remember that you're a queen (Remember that you're a queen)
And I’m right here on your team (I’m right here)
Oh yeah
Super-intelligent, young president
Gold-shimmering melanin, sun resident
You're a black skin queen like a nighttime scene
Sweet cinnamon melodies so feminine
You’re systematically reduced to hair buns and boobs
Let the world know your truth, not the narrative we're used to
Girl, I know your depth, I know you're so complex
See, if it ain't your sex, you can’t ignore the effects of complexion
It ain't fair, upon reflection
The way you're navigating passive aggression
Here's an idea, here's somethin' I see
Sense your heart should be ice, but you're warm like tea
Black sister (Black sister)
Where you at, yo? (Where you at, yo?)
You've got a million things on your back, girl (Back, girl)
See, even when the world is an attacker (Attacker)
You're the beauty in it, you're the soundtrack, girl (Soundtrack, girl)

[Chorus]
Black girl (Oh yeah, black girl, oh)
You've gotta have confidence (Hey, black girl)
And it feels like we've only got ourselves (Mmm)
And it seems like there's no one there to help (Mmm)
Confidence (Confidence)

[Bridge]
Yeah, destined for success since birth
Girl, I hope you know your worth, yeah
Deep inside, you hold the key
You're a beautiful queen

[Chorus]
Black girl (Oh yeah, black girl, oh)
You've gotta have confidence (Oh yeah, black girl)
And it feels like we've only got ourselves (Ahh)
And it seems like there's no one there to help (Ahh)
Confidence (Confidence)

[Outro]
Oh, somebody's loving you, are you loving yourself?
Take a look in the mirror, girl, you're worth it
And whilst you're there loving you, tell somebody else
Take a look at your family, girl, we're perfect
(Black girl)
(Confidence)
