Bm7Four hundred years or more A
Em9Since you came to crucify Em7 A
Bm7They were taken far away from home A#
Em9There were promises of paradise Em7 A
But if they had been told that day Bm7
A#°
They would be told that this way
Em9To satisfy the souls of chosen man Em7 A
See I had to look carefully Bm7
A#°
At the shame of my ancestry
Em9To redefine the storyline again Em7 A
If I was taken fAm7or a day
And shown anoGm7ther day
Every cCm7hild can learn a different thing Dbm9
See I tried a miAm7llion times
But I had to Gm7change my mind
SadnessCm7 was the best thing I could bring Dbm9
On the inside heAm7 was dead and this is what he said Gm7
As he tCm7ook away the blue above the clouds Dbm9
Oh, superiority Am7was clearly meant to be Gm7
So destCm7iny will manifest in time Dbm9 Cm7 Bm7
SoBm7 wheAre hEm9as all Em7the loveA gone?
A troubled trail of tears will tell the tale
Of how I was put down where I don't belong
Woman, child and man for sale
For ethical slavery is just an absurdity
How can you be alive when you are dead
With these chains of hipocrisy
The shame of my ancestry
Forever strained in blood in which you tread
