For years, she’s been talked about as the
Forgotten of God, forgotten of God
And everybody’s running to Mother Africa to save her
Everybody wants to save her
All the while, no one seems to go beyond
Her many, many, many, many bad days
But I can hear her say I…
I’m beautiful, magnificent I am,
Glorious, intelligent, I am just like you
I am, beautiful, magnificent I am
Glorious, intelligent I am just like you
Through images, you’ve been told about her world
With such simple illusions, with such simple illusions
And no one ever seeks her mind,
Cause no one thinks she’s got any good to give, any good to give
All the while, no one seems to go beyond
Her many, many, many, many bad days
But I can hear her say I…
I’m beautiful, magnificent I am,
Glorious, intelligent I am just like you
I am, beautiful, magnificent I am
Glorious, intelligent I am just like you
I am just like you
I may look different, but I, I’m just like you
I may think different, but I, I’m just like you
I may be different, but I, I’m just like you
