Ogeitho bleach not , for you are Africa

When i am a child

While playing with my fellows

There parents call them

And say it loud in my ears

Don't u see she's darkness

No man will ever look at her skin



When i grow up

While walking by the road side

My fellow girls laugh out

While cover their spotted skins

And saying it loud in my ears

Can't you bleach and look like the white angel

For no man will even find interest in a black cock



When my father finds me a husband

Who brings in bridleway with love

For happiness knocks once in life of me

Since a man is finding interest me

But when I reach his home

He buys me snowfire to bleach my skin

While saying that I have brought me not

Respect but disgrace indeed.


But when I say this to my mum

She's the only one who calls me back

And says, many are bleached married but not happy

Come back to your father's house for peace

Only lies in the the hands of parents.


When my father finds me home

He dies of a strock

For her can bear this disgrace

And my siblings chase me from home

For am not fit for love or even beauty



But I will not bleach, for am Africa

I willnot walk in a man's personality that is not mine

Africa is my home

And I will always find peace in my black cock color

For I feel Afica again
