I accuse you of taking me from my
motherland.
I accuse you of leaving us in bondage.
i accuse you of wanting us to do for you,
what you have not done for us.
I accuse you of not learning about me,
then discriminating against me for what
color I am.
I accuse you of hating my culture, may
race, and my family of young brothers
and sisters.
I accuse you of trying to kill me, destroy
and dismantle me and my race.
I accuse you of putting me down, leav
ing my soul to be burned down, and not
letting me be free to do the same as
others can.
