Don't tuck your cape in, young sister
Let it blow by in the wind
They want you to be Clark Kent, young brother
But you're more like Superman
First of all, don't apologize for the skin you're in
It shows just how deep we are
Reminds us where we been
Sure, we had some tough times
I'm sure there's more to come
But anything is possible, you're black, gifted and young
Spread your wings, little lady
Show them who you are
Spread your wings, little lady
Reach and touch the stars
Spread your wings, little lady
Said show them who you are
A queen of possibilities, the best to me by far (don't tuck your cape in, young sister)
Let it blow by in the wind
They want you to be Clark Kent, young brother
But you're more like Superman
Physically, yeah it is known when it comes to black, we're blessed
But understand that your mind might be the strongest yet
We have printed many things, what would this world be?
Without the work of people that look just like you and me
Spread your wings, little man
Show how fly you are
Spread your wings, little man
Reach and touch the stars
Stretch your wings, little man
Show them who you are
A king of possibilities, the best to me by far
