black defiance
I am defiance, this is resistance
The brain of the oppressed on these lines makes for the peoples perfect crime
to defy is to challenge the power, to resist boldly
I will not be told I come from apes, monkey's, and animal related things
I come from a people of queens, and kings
my culture is rich in bravery even through our slavery
with these words I attempt to "give us, us free" like cinque
I am the truth through our opressors fog of lies
I am defiance, this is the resistance
