Better Off

Was Samoa better off without


The missionaries coming to save us


Oh enslave us to leave our roots


To submit to their god


Because we were savages


That ate humans


But didn't Europeans eat humans too


Yet we have mixed their infected bloodline with our customs and


Still call it Fa'a Samoa


Or the Samoan Way


I didn't know that Samoans came from the Caucus Mountains or the caves


But when we ask questions


We are told to shut up


Left confused


Telling us we are fiapoko


Or smart alecks thinking we know it all


Yet they wonder why people have left the church


Because they no longer follow the source


But their own self interests


Like draining the energy and pockets of the congregation


But when we question it they say


We are looking at it through our own eyes


Not through the Holy Spirit


I believe in God but not of the oppressor


Looking to seek the truth


The truth of what God wanted from us


Not of religion and titles


But how my ancestors lived


The true Fa'a Samoa


The Samoan Way without the clorox


Purified brown soulful essence


Were we better off


Better off


Not having those invaders and impostors on our island


Damn

Our Wombmen Be Tha Bidness

They are always imitated and copied


Innovative to when they create


Their hips shake off the hate from those who be forever stealing from them because their visions of beauty be watered down


As our wombman smile


It can gravitate galaxies in an axis where eyes are mesmerized and chins drop


But they also manifest civilizations and movements to free us from the undermining of the enemy who continue to oppress


For without our wombmen where will we be


Without their intellectual ways and methods


Gravitating us into healing nurturing where we can be inventors and researchers finding what our ancestors left behind for us to use


For it will return to us but we must also stop abusing our wombman


Because the seed can't be manifested without them


For we need each other needing to stop the neglection of our wombmen because the oppressor is already abusing them


So we must protect them at all costs


For our wombmen be tha bidness
