Of course yes, we are blacks

We didn't want to be in your country In this first place, You dragged us to your country. On our backs we built the future. You called us different nasty names, Reduced us to animals Despite all the degradation We made it still. Shame on you. It's painful being you right now. The more you make us feel small The bigger we are, we define ourselves. We are real deal, we are love Of course yes, we are BLACKS
