So you wanna know more about me. I’m an African American female, 23, my b-day is 2/29. In my spare time I listen to a lot of music different kinds. My favorite artist is Janet, I also like some other people too, like Alicia Keys, Aaliyah, No Doubt etc. etc. etc.
I think I’m an honest person, whatever I am feeling for someone I have to let them know. I don't have any children, I don't smoke, I don't do any drugs. I'm the type of person who likes to laugh and joke around. I consider myself, nice and truthful. I am shy and it takes me a little while to get comfortable with someone. When in a relationship I am very honest, I let the person know what I like and don’t like. I think that is very important, communication is one of the things that keeps a relationship going. Anything else you would like to know, feel free to ask me.
Pretty woman wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to fit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
They swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's the arch of my back
The sun in my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing,
I ought to make you proud
I say,
It's the click of my heals,
The bend of my hair,
The need for my care.
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
