🎶🎶🎶 Lyrics....
"You proud of your color?
Jab Jab, Jab Jab, Jab Jab, Jab Jab.
Black as ever. Black as ever.
Down the road.
Black as ever. How we go be Black forever.
From the time we chain, alot of them don't how we came about.
Sacrifice and pain, the motherland from which we been taken out.
Fields of sugar cane, the molasses that we been draining out.
Bound together with chains.
No more...no.
20,000 coming down with me.
Learn a part of the history.
Covered with oil and mystery.
Respect your ancestry.
From the shores of Africa packed on a ship,
To a plantation on a ??? whip,
From a king on a throne,
To a slave in a pit,
How we overcame it.
We rise!!!........"
