Slipping slipping into darkness
Because as the original being 
I'm no longer considered priceless
I'm falling falling deeper into this abyss we live in
Initial deathtrap 
My distinctiveness is dichotomized and stolen
Vanished vanished like the embezzled bodies 
Diamonds and gold they robbed and stole from africa
Shipped shipped underneath the planks of vessels 
Sailing to so-called america 
Huh america oh america oh america
Home home of the free and the brave 
But someone forgot to say 
Someone forgot to say 
Prison of the restrained and the enslaved 
Now i'm no longer an african i'm on foreign land 
I'm an african american no link to the continent
Bcuz my mind's content 
Has been brainwashed dissected and bent
Into chattel slavery aka personal property 
And they say they saved me 
Like they say christ saved them
But not me with christianity 
From alleged savagery
Bought and sold as a commodity 
Sold at an auction
Raped and beaten i'm an american  
Oh a proud american
Bound in this place 
That is full of lies, pain and deception
Lashes whistling  while ripping
Through to the white meat severing 
My beautiful beautiful black skin
That you oftentimes oftentimes wish you were in
Now you can rip bullets through my skin
Because you thought you thought you saw a weapon
But it was a chrome lighter 
A chrome lighter flickering fire 
Not a gun in my hand you had to say it was such 
So you could shoot again and again 
To justify murdering a blackman 
Killed by licensed and registered hands

I reminisce i reminisce 
Through the eyes of my ancestors 
Forefathers and others
Brandished with hate bcuz of my color 
Although i am the original mother
That civilized you so you could have civilization
You refuse simply refuse to acknowledge 
My birthing of all nations
My dna gave you human manifestation
Inside the sorrows of darkness i don't feel blessed
I'm losing myself i'm losing myself
Bcuz everything else including my soul has been taken
Taking what i got to get what you want
Forcing me to exterminate my body 
With alcohol lean crack pills primos 
And blunts to alleviate the pains 
The pains that keep me mentally drunk
I'm a product of the product
A living artifact as a matter of fact
Make america great again is subliminal for 
Make blacks slaves again
This world is so cold oh it's so cold
It doesn't realize that i i am the wealth and the gold
But i've been bartered and sold 
The story continues to be told
Yet falls upon deaf ears that can hear 
But fold at any cost
Not to discredit the 6 million deaths in the holocaust
But what about reparations 
For the 100 million slaves in america we lost
What about my predestined loss 
I suffer for the generations of the past
The present  and tomorrow
This world is so cold shivering cold
Caucus mountains cold below zero evil cold
That's why that's why that's why 
I live inside the constant darkness of sorrow
