A rebellious seed

Christians praise a trinity but are monotheistic

Media is fiction we worship because its unrealistic 

America was stolen and became rich off the back of slaves

Those thieves found heaven on earth then buried their sins in gilded graves

White folks turned black music, religion, and culture into a commodity 

When I strive to reclaim our culture, I’m ostracized as an oddity 

Black American with no homeland infused with our captors genes against our will

Know that our playing field is just another steep hill

I’m more African than American, so I’m going to embrace it!

Each time white America lies, I’m going to erase it!

Born with a mark that we can’t hide and a soul that we can’t free

The diaspora was a violent storm, but I’m a rebellious seed ripped away from the mother tree
