Four Women Nina Simone

My skin is black
My arms are long
My hair is wooly
My back is strong
Strong enough to take the pain
Its been inflicted again and again
What do they call me
My name is aunt sarah
My name is aunt sarah

My skin is yellow
My hair is long
Between two worlds
I do belong
My father was rich and white
He forced my mother late one night
What do they call me
My name is siffronia
My name is siffronia

My skin is tan
My hairs alright, its fine
My hips invite you
And my lips are like wine
Whose little girl am i?
Well yours if you have some money to buy
What do they call me
My name is sweet thing
My name is sweet thing

My skin is brown
And my manner is tough
Ill kill the first mother I see
Cos my life has been too rough
Im awfully bitter these days
Because my parents were slaves
What do they call me
My
Name
Is
Peaches

*To understand pain, one does not need to be black or be a woman.*

No--sadly, one need only be human.

@tonywrestles2 , but to be a Human that is a Black Woman..you know pain like no other could!

AUNTSARA- strong black woman, the madea, the "mammie". SIFFRONIA- confused biracial girl in an identity crisis. is she beautiful or an "abomination"?. she suffers. SWEET THANG- the tan light skinned black woman w/ curly fro easily straightened.( probably mixed w/ latino/middle eastern/white). pretty but loose. she is the vixen, the "slut" who has deeper issues and seeks comfort in men's arms. PEACHES- irate black woman. brown skin. tough attitude after a hard life.easily mistaken for "ghetto"

Reflections Eternal (Hitek And Talib Kweli) did justice to Mama Nina Simone with their a song with the same title on the their album "Train Of Thought"

I just finished a cover of this song on my channel. I sang it first at my graduation from college, but I wanted to revisit it here on my channel for posterity.... :-) Bless, KIA MUZE :-)
