Overcoming Insecurities: Celebrating Inner Intelligence and Beauty

I remember when my background was just that 
Something that I would keep in the background
Rushing to bury the foreign that flew off my tongue
So they would not recognize that I was not of this land
Praying my darkness away so I could feel attractive
It's something that this country does to you
It strips your confidence
And it makes you doubt your intellect, Your beauty, 
your capability, your strength 
But when your smarts are rooted in you 
no one/nothing can take it away from you
