Our women are calling
Black Queens on a mission
Calling all Kings
Men that are missing
They call to us loud
They call to us clear
They are calling my brother
It's time for us to hear
Queens needing Kings to avoid the trap
That socio/mathematical scheme
Historically keeping us apart
Chasing something
Anything
While other folks kids get the better start
She's not so strong to do it alone
Though many have done it successfully
Too high a price must be paid
And it's really not how she wants it to be
The call is out my brother
She doesn't want to be a martyr
Carrying the sign that says, "I'm doing the best I can"
Knowing she is capable of so much more
Needing only the love and support of her man
And it is the love of a Black Man she wants
Don't be fooled by stories in Essence Magazine
Or statistics showing more white men on the scene
Please!
No one can love her the way we do
It's us the're calling for a love that is true
And so much more than just physical love
It's our glow, our strength, our emotion, our style
Our look, our rhythm, our minds
Our tears and our smiles
She's calling for our fearless hearts
Comfort and protection when she's in our arms
Calling for the peace
Found only in our charms
She's calling for our lives
A call for our loving spirit
We must listen with our souls
If we ever are to hear it
BE
