Take a step back
To a time past
Old story from the bottom of the fucking map
Fair skin with the wind behind a rebel flag
Blood is blood but I never had imaged that
My own kin wallowed in ignorance
Burning crosses, a beacon of prejudice
My uncle told me of the clan, our ancestors
Tethered by blood in this modern America
I have to fight for an equal life
I don't know who would be more surprised
Brown skin ridiculed by blue eyes
World view through a noose or a white hood
It's all bullshit, I'm the living proof
You hear me?
I'll outlast you
Heritage that cuts me like a hemorrhage
No homage to an ignorant narrative, bitch
Weep for my kin soaked in southern blood
I bare the shame of your name and your actions
To the families affected by hatred
My heart breaks, and I wish I could change it
Now it's my time
I am the last of my family’s name
My birth banished the old ways
The final hour, the last say
Fuck your hate, you mother fuckers
