#Ferguson
We see through the blood of our roots
We eat off the pain on their spoons
We hear of the revolt
Hands up don't shoot
We also hear of the ridicule and jokes
Pants up don't loot
We heard of Banner's tears
Where were white rappers when they mowed Mike Brown
And Young's concerns and cares
Getting iced out and booties down
We pay attention
We have our own problems but share in your pain, your tension
We understand your protest
Against those labelled 'to serve and protect'
We hear of the arrests
We hear of the unrest
"This stops today"!We heard of Eric Garner
Trayvon Martin, a whole lot others
We heard of the Verdict
Well it was an easy predict
Bear in mind against all odds
We here pray to our various Gods
And hope our voices get heard soon
Over the injustice in your lands and #Ferguson
We are not ignorant of the devices
So we are prepared for the surprises
We are behind you
Our spirits beside you
From the lands you left 400 years ago
We send words of support to back your ego
To Africans in America
From Africans in Africa
