Bringin' hope to the forgotten
With words to change a nation, like M.L.K
Children of his dream
What shame we've become
In partaking culture genocide
Drug overused of any kind
Is a deteriorating death
Unprotected sex, like aids is none existing
Where now to kill a man
Your reward with hood stripes and tattoo tears
So excuse me
Years of this living there is no fear of death
Welcome to the jungle
Where life has no value
And manhood is defined by your status of wealth
So materialistic
So far distant
Of not knowing who we are
Not even knowing who we are
No Honors for the Heros
There is no glory for our past martyr
Denmark Vesey
Nat Turner
Marcus Garvey in qouting
"Africa for the Africans"
Putting us back in that mind sate
Of greatness, marvelous,
Harmonious with the universe
Giving back to what
Malcolm X taught
What Noble Drew Ali Brought
with the same words Bob Marley sang
Visions thru his green vapors
Freedom for the people
Who forgot what's royalty like
Ruling empires bringing birth to civilizations is like
There is no glory for our past martyr
Where my mother's mother is Africa
From the pillars of her bones
The wooliness of her hair
To the melanin protecting her olive hue
Strength,
Bravery,
Self-pride
Is these not the ingredient's of
Warrior's
Kings,
Quens
Our blood is as rich as Alex Hailey roots
Honor our heros who paved the way
Frederick Douglas
Sojourner Truth, alone with countless others
Who contributed their lives
For the growth of our nation
We are born survivors crown with righeousness
