Found in your homeland
Your skin colour made you
less human.
You were seen as an animal
before anything else
Hate was declared against you
for you are black
Stripped off of your own identity
and  enslaved
Your dignity lost before your eyes
Shamed for your skin colour
Your welcoming heart betrayed you and turned you a slave
Freedom is a state of mind for reality it's a myth
Black man you will never know freedom for it is a privilege
Your human state will be questioned in different ways
