We gone cry/To whom this may concern


When freedom rings for my people in the Diaspora and home in our Great Blak Mother...We gone cry. We gone cry because of past times and pastence and centuries and ions and what seemed to be an eternity of theft, exploitation, murder claim to our name, that pale face in the wrong place!. We gone cry because you arrived upon our land usurper, and from that time until our restoration we cry!. We cry for the great kingdoms that stood tall and crashed when you came upon us,We cry because you ripped the precious resources off our mother!,We cry for leaders The kings and Queens who to fight off leeching capturers. We cry because you began to kidnap my ancestors and used and abuse them and subjected them to deplorable conditions and to bring them upon this land, and that they will never see home again.
We cry some more we arrive upon a land cold and callous so far from our Great Blak Mother abundant in resources and loved ones left behind,... just going for a simple task, and got captured by Capitalism. We gone cry because you put us up on that auction block as if we were non Hue-man, animalistic,you poked, prodded, humiliated my people, ripped my ancestors apart from family as if we didn't have feelings. Mother away from child Husband away from wife you sold us, split us up throughout this western world. We gone cry because we showed you non cultural thieves everything you know!,we built this muthafucka from the soil all the way up top to the highest buildings and CEO positions at big corporations and banks and universities, We poured our blood in this concrete you walk upon.
We gone cry because generations had gone by, so-called freed from slavery,Willie Lynch, Jim crow,segregation,civil rights,marching and not moving from our seats when asked hadn't changed you Bloodsucking leeches. We gone cry because we came this far, in this deep and had not seen change and the deep inflicted colonization. We gone cry because well respected Black Organizations still hadn't knocked you down. We gone cry because of the drugs and guns in our neighborhoods that YOU dump there,the murdering of young black men. We gone cry for the murder victims Oscar Grant,Amadou Diallo, Sean Bell. We gone cry because the UN-just system got our Freedom Fighting Political prisoners tangled in this web you weaved...Mumia, Assata, just to name a few. We gone cry because you try to extinct us put us in the front line of your war!. Despite it all WE ARE STILL HERE! we are unbreakable through the mis-treatment, the racism, the infectious colonization. We will return however long it may take with those tears in our eyes,We will lay down your murderous damned burden...We have arrived, Back to Original, Back to Harmony,...Mother Afrika
