Enslaved by chains of prejudice
Bound by names of shame & ignorance
Looked down upon by many
However, I do not let go of the pride still within me
Never forgetting the struggle, its forever remembered
To many deaths of my forefathers & ancestors
The trials & tribulations of this nation's past still lasts
We hav come so far, yet we have not made it to the top
We haven't yet givin this last fight to end the struggle all we've got
We're too overcome with today's one-sided ways
Engulfed by material things that yet to mean anything
We have gone back to being bind by sterotypes & lies
Now we sit back in our own demise as "White America" begins to criticzie
WHY?
I say why?
WHy must we let ourselves forget of where we 1st came?
Why do we act ashamed of how our forefathers whom paved a way for us to claim
FREEDOM
Many of us have lost our faith
ANd demolished our pride
Instead we hide trying to find security from humility amungst the shadows
We forget about battles. the scars left for many years, the unwiped tears...
But I, I have not forgotten where I once came
I will forever claim the name of BLACK PRIDE
If your ready for a revolution then stop, no longer hide
Come to the promise land on calvary's peek
Do not be afraid to speak
SHOUT from the moutain tops
without worries or cares that we as people shall no longer despair
Let us walk with heads held high & fist in air!
