 </div><p></p>As I stand on the hilltops<br>
Gazing deep down the valleys<br>
I behold you<br>
The dwarf but bravest of all
<p>Though amidst thorns and giants<br>
Your branch produces the best<br>
Of black which is gold<br>
You spring forth springs out of desert<br>
For your offsprings</p>
<p>You suffer high intensity<br>
For lack of shelter<br>
Though you’re mocked and neglected<br>
You never give up<br>
In attending lofty heights</p>
<p>The giants that surrounds you<br>
Have denied you love and comfort<br>
All because of your color<br>
The thorns says you’re weak<br>
Because of your dark roots and branches</p>
<p>The giants once again<br>
Call you fool<br>
Because you enjoy being who you are<br>
You are poor because all you’ve got<br>
Have been robbed of you</p>
<p>Your black soil is where they eat<br>
Their purest wine is tapped<br>
From your poorest and darkest vines<br>
Their white garments are but<br>
Products of your dark seeds</p>
<p>All they’ve are turned<br>
From black to colors of choice<br>
Simply to deny of your rich heritage<br>
All you’ve got have been robbed of you<br>
Except the color, which is your pride</p>
