Mmeso Inspires: It is what it is

Black is creamy,

It’s fierce,

It’s bold,

It’s natural,

It’s brave,

With a touch of pride, you know…

Don’t ask me why,

Because, It is what It is.

Look, we are beautiful,

We are sexy,

Standard and classy,

And original,

Now tell me Queensly, why you went to a dermatologist?

Black is priceless, so you know…

You can’t afford it even if you consult Dr. Blacks,

Don’t give me that look girl,

It is what It is.
