Just Us Where Is the Justice-
Just us
a peoples bound 200 years
enslaved by third peers though they rationalize and christianized slavery
the truth the bondage of a slave where is
justice
Just us
Freedom came
Emancipation by a great president freed us
but yet not free
Just us
free with no place to go
nothing to hold
nothing to own promises 40 acres and a mule
if it was so true
we would now literally own 80% of the nation
yet in all creation
has been so much suffering
where does our beloved brethren
where are the first Americans natives
they were here first
they too joined the curse with us
just us
For them the impoverished the weak the stricken and the poor
where's the justice
