I carry absolute love around every day
had it from day one in blessing heaps
mama and papa oh so loved their children
papa was the only man mama knew all her life
papa gave his whole life and more to mama
toiled all his life to raise happy healthy kids
gave solid foundation and bred notables
who were made to stand tail and hold their own
how can I be with love past present and future
when its what made me, bred me and hold me up
a million slave traders cannot unmake me
a million Chris MaCarfatteys cannot destroy me
I was born on a glorious island, I was made in blessed love
true, honest, lifting and affirming
just what the world always needs
