Written by Cherrie O. for KIDS OF THE DIASPORA
I am that proud kid,
shout it out loud kid
LGTBQIA
More than words could ever say
Don’t you know the alphabet
and what marsha said way back
ABCDEFG
Is just how we’re taught to be
white, pink, light blue, brown and black
read the aura of our flag
as the colours unfold
the rainbow extends
and so that everybody understands
the shouting has to be so loud
for love to make the world go round
like no cage can shut away a lion’s pride
hear true lioness roar tonight
ain’t no doubt about it
I am proud to be that kid.
