Hi, my name is Tajji Samone. I am a missionary. I sold my car, most of my belongings, and I moved from Long Beach, California to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The T-Shirt “Beautifully Created” is based on a song I wrote. My long-term goal is to establish a Non-Governmental Christian Organization on behalf of Persons with Albinism (PWA’s). Persons with Albinism endure stigma, stereotypes, discrimination, myths, superstition, and persecution. Many have been victims of maiming and murder due to their community’s belief in witchcraft. The Lord has called me to align myself with this particular persecuted group. My short-term goal is to generate funds that help me pay for food, clean drinking water, electricity, and the other basic necessities of life. If this fundraiser can assist with rent payment which is $136.00 a month that would be an amazing blessing as well. From September 2017 to February 2018: malaria, typhoid, kidney issues, and severe allergies; then at the end of March and at the very beginning of May - malaria again. Continuous sickness has depleted my budget and now, I need assistance. It is my sincere hope and prayer that people will be willing to support me by buying this t-shirt and/or making a donation. Also pray for Tanzania, pray for Persons with Albinism, and pray for me. Thank you for your support! May God Bless You Greatly! Sincerely, Tajji Samone Beautifully Created By Tajji Samone This is my country / but it seems/ it don’t want me You may reject me / But God… He loves me Beautifully created / I know that you hate it In every way you state it / But God… is elated Chorus 1: My skin has no melanin Beautiful outside / Wonderful within In this world of sin / Evil hunts me down But God is Sovereign (He always wins) This war may rage / body part trade / by modern day slaves who want to get paid / money is their god They don’t know Him / created Heaven / Earth and everything in it Chorus 2: My skin has no melanin Wonderful outside / Beautiful within In this world of sin / Evil hunts me down But God is Sovereign (He always wins) In the shadows of your heart / you plot my downfall you have no love / no love at all / pretender pretender smiles wrapped in lies / send evil men under cover of night they cut me with knives / $1,000 for my arm you’ve priced my fingers / you steal my children / their screams still linger Chorus 1: My skin has no melanin Beautiful outside / Wonderful within In this world of sin / Evil hunts me down But God is Sovereign (He always wins) My life, my love / you never think of / you cut out my heart to end all I dream of / destroy my family / my sense of community Who are the people doing this to me? / enemy – enemies Is it my brother? father? / aunt or my uncle? My friend or cousin? / Who can be trusted? Who embodies this hatred / in this deceitful matrix?/ Jesus, help me escape it! Chorus 2: My skin has no melanin Wonderful outside / Beautiful within In this world of sin / Evil hunts me down But God is Sovereign (He always wins) Heart so shattered / Unbearable hurt Where is the church? / Where is the church? Will you protect me or neglect me? / Fast, pray, and respect me? You are aware / Please show you care If all of you forsake me / God is still there! Chorus 1: My skin has no melanin Beautiful outside / Wonderful within In this world of sin / Evil hunts me down But God is Sovereign (He always wins)
