repatriated souls
holds whats golden to them
what can't dissolve their resolve
love for the masses strengthens them
this truth suppressed, becomes revolutionary
in the times of deceit
this truth that we consume
is a different food that we eat.
voices for change echo across
third world nations alike
brothers and sisters who are a minority
in this country can't see beyond the fact
that globally we are a majority in unity
it is our blood that built these countries
it was our blood that soaked the earth
it was our women who were raped
and died on slave ships
in plantation fields while giving birth.
it was our men who bore the lashes
by the overseer's whip.
and our original history, religion, culture
from our ka that was ripped
how dear you AMERICA, UK, FRANCE, SPAIN,
HOLLAND, DENMARK, GERMANY, BELGIUM
consider this a necessary evil
then got nerve to demonize my Oba, my Obatala, My Golden Stool
as the works of the devil.
