humbled sista. passionate pass-over princess dreams of a perfect world in which her rich blood isn’t drained

a tree garden where sturdy necks will not hang,

a konkrete kingdom where fatal powder and barrels won’t bang,

a paradise in which our pride is free and not chained.

passionate pass-over princess, she is the future that momma taught. she is the sun of a dying egosystem where consumers consume our food for thought. from every hoodie to hijab, overlooked is what we’re always seen. chins and balled hands remain up, they’ll never knock her self esteem. as she passed on the pass-over, and caught her fate of evolving into an Afro Queen. -Hakeem. #afroqueen
