Too Different
Pulled up to the shore
With our freedom missing
Pulled up to the shore
But freedom was missing
Original 2 chains,
Anklet and wrist-lets
We the victims,
A slow 500 years ago
We were just praying to bless some chickens
Wondering how many cows are needed for a bed vixen
Then some white dudes hopped out
Like,” keep it Christian!
KEEP IT CHRISTIAN!
Or they slashing and killing
Forget and fuck how all yall feeling
Read this book or it doesn’t matter
I’ll teach it to your children
Come hear,
Learn the language of me
It might cause you all your culture
But I’m guessing its free
I mean the only fee
Could be
The lost of your entire ancestry!
Don’t worry we could write that over
Excluding the utterly important piece
About who you were and
How your actually suppose to be
Eliminated future,
It might be hot in here
Don’t worry where we going is chilly
And the people notice your difference
As if they have no soul
The environment changes and the people are cold…
They just let us go
Our ancestral,
Brothers and sister’n
So don’t call me a nigga
If you from anywhere in Africa
I’ll cock back and knock the black off ya
Because yall sold me
Not knowing what had cost you
Could of been schooling in lost libraries of Timbuktu
Instead I’m handing out applications to those who-fucked-you
Coulda woulda shoulda
But it didn’t happen that way
We were different
But it took us to long
To stop being slaves
Too different
I wonder is we could ever be saved
