1st Verse Lord forgive us all for we are sinners. Lackin knowledge, them burnin our books by da river. Indigenous Family trees hidden in ah Mormon Vault. Education came to take away thoughts. Had to go backwards to forget what I was taught. Way back before da serpent even seen ah cross. Born in my home land so how da fuck I'm lost. Shamans led da way, so fuck ya boss. Da village in me, tribe shit, land of da brave, Before a European came we never seen a slave. Ain't even got the heart to thank us for all the food we gave. In the Wizard of Oz with this golden road we paved. No disrespect to Africa but I ain't that, I'm who dey called ah Indian when they came crashed. We who dey called the Indians when they couldn't make it back. 2nd Verse Peekaboo, I can see you gotta ghost spell. Supreme being got you hanging on his coat tail. Concrete covering the land like ah ah egg shell. feathers gone now and everythings ah fairy tale. They Told em make a movie for it. They Told em tell ah different story. they fucked up da firmament and made da serpent take da blame for it. If everything is god then why everything, they got a name for it. Remember, the turtle won da race, Spirituality embedded in my People this a sacred place. And our children gotta know this, Pyramids ducked off in our Nature parks dat dey ain't showin. Ancient cities all up and down da Mississippi, Indigenous tribes that thrived all as equals Yamesse. No disrespect to Africa but I ain't that, I'm who dey called ah Indian when they came crashed. We who dey called the Indians when they couldn't make it back.
