Tell me a story
A story of bravery and courage
Of black, white and shackles freed
Tell me a story
Of chariots and horses swinging low so I can hitch a ride
Blue skies and soaring eagles
Tell me a story
Of Hope, love and freedom
Don't tell me that story
Of weeping and wailing
Crying and gnashing of teeth
I don't want to hear that story
It is not a story to be told, to be passed on
I know who I am
I am me, I am free, I am black.
