mrs.african godess i dont really remember you
but i remember i met you at school
mrs.african godess you always told me i was going to be what i wanted to be
you told me to go further then the stars theyre too close to me
mrs.african godess with the long dreads
you told me for fun you sit and thread
mrs.african godess you were sent from god to me
you as a young lady told me the way to escape my mind was poetry
mrs.african godess with the nice smile even with braces
you told me never see color were all the same no matter the races
mrs.african godess why did i have to leave
you always said i make a mircle everytime i breathe
mrs.african godess who taught me about king tut
you told me im the best no such thing as luck
you told me i was a king and should be treated like one
you told me never settle for less im worth a ton
the african meal you cooked was so good i can still taste it
you told me keep my head up and ill have no choice but to make it
mrs.african godess you taught me about a great poets gave me good information
not only me you even exceeded my moms expectation
you told me you always wore your scarf because that our african culture
when you were my teacher seemed like school wasnt a torture
days have gone by me and you both are getting old
but you teaching me about my african background keep me bold
im proud to be african amercan i dont care if anyone mock this
for my boldness besides god i can only thank you mrs.african godess
