That Nega Word Lyrics

Africans you cannot use the n word coz you were not enslaved

Ok so then why was my head shaved?

And how come I was forced to build the forts and not get paid?

And why then was I made to change the beings to which I prayed?

You think colonisers actually call me by my name?

No

We were both programmed to look in mirrors and feel shame

Flesh torn by the bullet

By the whip

By the cane

Just mourn when they pull it and they dip

It's insane

Same police

Fleecing us as sheep

Kneeling us asleep

Hoping we never wake up

Out of our shallow graves and dig deep

Into the most empathetic form of a human being possible

To re incept the concept that one love is not impossible

Hey

We are not the enemy

The same thing inside of you is the same inside of me

Malcom X

Kwame Nkrumah

Anikulapo Kuti

Nina Simone

Yaa Asantewaa

And Mandela Winnie
