There were no slaves in the caves
It took civilisation to create the concept of people as property
The supreme paradox of human progress is that it has brought
Along with much light, a deepening of the dark 

Was I one of the thousands and millions, victim to greed and all of its dealings
Was I slave, created through killings, am I part of a white mans winnings
Taken as prize, to my demise, just an item in everyone's eyes
We have our rights still treated like slaves, shackled and dragged through all of these days
Mentally whipped our confidence ripped and then told it'll be okay
Justice doesn't exist, you have no place in this, come on look at the list, my birth was even a risk 
Given the rope told not to choke, keep eyes forwards, but still have hope
Just cause I don't have a cuff on my wrist, doesn't mean it's not hard to exist
The fear the embarrassment, all at your hand, but black privilege reigns through the land
Ignore the screams keep to your dreams, don't let your death slip through the seams 
It isn't all that it seems, I wish I was black, one of the kings, when you know nothing of rings
Chains from head to the toe, metal to wrist you don't know
Wondering do I bun cro, wondering do I bun cro 
Am I one of the slaves, mentally shackled, stuck in the cave 
Why I long for fame, to cover in gold, shift all the blame 
Sactra griffe marabou mulatre quarteron metis mameluc octoron sang-mele 128 piece 
Was it better to go overboard or be catalogued by the lord
Grab the man by the throat or keep it down keep your hope
Suicide for me never an option even when im put in a pen
I was born in a cage, mentally enslaved, ridiculed cause of my race
Not white enough to be white, not black enough to be black
Half the cast, a dirty mix, selling my soul to 666, cause when Christ brought me down
The devil brought me up, selling my soul for love, blaming it all on the drugs

Black slaves appeared in European records as early as December 21st 1300
It is estimated that 11,863,000 black slaves were shipped across the Atlantic to America
10-20 percent died in the middle passage across the sea
Leaving approximately 10,200,000 to arrive in America alive
However, an equal number to the ones who survived the journey to America
Died on the way to the coast, not even making it to the ships
Their blood on the hands of their own people
We have always been pitted against each other, as rival communities
The black community was enslaved as early as 1300, and we still are, we're still enslaved
Just not directly
