Black History - Don Carlos

Ooh ooh ooh

I know, I know

Ooh ooh

My heart is filled with grief when I remember

How they’ve taken our foreparents from their homeland

Shipped to every corner of this earth

Bound in shackles and chain like their beast

They would be spanked with many strikes by the master

If they should ever not do just what they’re told

It really grieves my heart to see

It’s pure brutality

Whenever I recall my history

It grieves my heart, you see

How they’ve treated our foreparents

In the days of slavery

Slavery and brutality

That’s all they give me

That’s all they give me

My heart is filled with grief when I remember

How they’ve taken our foreparents from their homeland

Shipped to every corner of this earth

Bound in shackles and chain like their beast

They would be spanked with many strikes by the master

If they should ever not do just what they’re told

It really grieves my heart to see

It’s pure brutality

My heart is filled with grief when I remember

How they’ve taken our foreparents from their homeland

Shipped to every corner of this earth

Bound in shackles and chain like their beast

I know, I know, I know

I know, I know, I know

Ooh ooh

Jah jah
