A man`s hopes die before he does
I had to shed my skin from who I was
I started reading to find the truth
They stole our past to hide our roots
Our names were changed to protect the guilty
Woe to those that planned iniquity
Beware of the oppressed and their cries
They shine in the sky like fireflies
One day we all will see the light
One day we all will start to fight
the system for what it truly is
A big gorilla on our backs
That is hell bent on making life hell for Blacks
Peace is only a state of mind
A Race War is brewing; the innocent are dying
Close your eyes and open your heart
Black and White, can you tell them apart?
Power is determined by the color lines
Believe in God and see his signs
God’s glory is all around
Though it may seem like only hate and wickedness abound
They are on a mission and will never rest
They have no inner peace or happiness
but they will have to make a choice
A revolution or righteousness.
I don’t think the world today quite understands the power of the word ‘revolution’. It evokes thoughts of historical events. But I see it popping up more and more with the #BlackLivesMatter protests. When people in London are protesting about something that happens anywhere in the U.S. we need to reacquaint ourselves with the definition of that word. It’s coming

I think a few of us understand. The rest is either brainwashed, still asleep or just can’t be bothered.
