Why is that Black Woman so angry ?
Because she saw you with another girl,
And now you’re pretending that wasn’t you
Big lies from you say it was just a bird.
Why is that Black Woman so angry ?
Because she didn’t dance for a while
And she’s been walking too many miles
Just to find food,
For a man who’s not in the mood
For loving her
And taking care of her.
Why is that black Woman so angry ?
What ? Don’t you watch television ?
Because she has the hardest mission
To raise another fighting generation,
Fighting for recognition
Fighting for non violence
Fighting for Justice.
Take a look at her ?
Do you really think she’s angry ?
Look at her eyes
There’s a hope that never dies,
There’s a screaming silence
To an indifferent audience
Whatever. She won’t tell you.
Not because it is a taboo.
She won’t tell you in the way you want to be told.
If you don’t hold her in a way she wants to be hold.
Why is that black Woman so angry ?
Because they just shot her son in the street
And she was told to deal with it.
Why is that black Woman so angry ?
Because she was just raped in the East of Congo
Then, they simply told her to go,
And she was chased by her village
Too busy with saving their image,
And now you’re asking why.
Instead of asking why she’s angry
Or even questioning whether she’s really angry,
Ask what’s wrong with the others.
Being indifferent to her condition,
Counting diamonds on her antievolution
That question matters.
And by the way she’s not angry.
You are simply using your standards of anger,
There’s a fight between her self worse and her self better,
She’s trying to hold an impossible love,
For a world she no longer understands,
No, no, she’s not mad.
She’s sad.
