Black man run bare feet, Like hot coals jumpin' beneath his soles You can take his body, but not his soul. I am a black girl, whose body is void of soul, They stampede-crushed it beneath their feet. I have marked death under their soles. ***** and ridden black, black soles ***** and ridden black, black souls, Death lingers in the path, led by your feet Unknown to the soul, without soles, without feet

Black Body
Black man run bare feet, Like hot coals jumpin' beneath his soles You can take his body, but not his soul. I am a black girl, whose body is void of soul, They stampede-crushed it beneath their feet. I have marked death under their soles. ***** and ridden black, black soles ***** and ridden black, black souls, Death lingers in the path, led by your feet Unknown to the soul, without soles, without feet
