Slave - by J.Guillit
Based on what, who,where and when
I have become a child of slave
Based on race, ethinicity
Based on my gender, sexuality
Slaved by my people's Nations
Who will cease the battle
The rumour and the fire words
Injection of humiliation and rejection
Subjected to rape and murder
Misleading conscious Nations
Marcus Garvi teachs about love
Remember our fore fathers
Fought for our freedom and unity
Why subject ourselves to
Painful, hurtful tears
Based on what, who,where and when
I have become a child of slave
Based on race, ethinicity
Based on my gender, sexuality
slaved by my people's Nations
I stand by my people
Chained and bounded for so long
The imposters are prawling
Our livehood with posters
Unkind systems to
Bounding, casting us in captivity
Chains and tears of rain
How far will run?
Where will we run to?
Who's willing to hide us?
When we will rise?
We will rise above human level
Awakening the light in life again.
In all humanity to eternal existence
So when they ask me,
who will cease this battle?
I’ll say—WE will.
Not tomorrow. Not someday.
But now—
because chains break louder when we rise together.
