I remember

It was four hundred years or more

Since you came to crucify

And they were taken

Far away from home

There were promises of paradise

But if they had been told that day

That they would be sold this way

To satisfy the souls of chosen men

See I had to look carefully

At the shame of my ancestry

To redefine the story line again

Hey if I was taken for a day

And shown another way

Now every child can learn

A different thing

See I tried a million times but

I had to change my mind

Oh sadness was the best thing I can bring

On the inside he was dead

And this is what he said

As he took away the

Bloom above the clouds

Oh superiority was clearly meant to be

So destiny will manifest in time

So where has love all gone

Troubled trail of tears

Will tell the take

Of how I was put down

Where I don belong

Woman child and man for sale

For ethical slavery is just an absurdity

How can you be alive when you are dead

With these chains of hypocrisy

The shame of my ancestry

Forever stained by blood in which you tread

Hey if I was taken for a day

And shown another way

Oh now every child can

Learn a different thing

See I tried a million times but

I had to change my mind

Oh sadness was the best thing

I can bring

On the inside he was dead

Oh and this is what he said

As he took away the bloom above the clouds

Oh superiority was clearly meant to be

So destiny will manifest in time

So where has the love all gone

So wanna know where

Wanna know where

Wanna know where

Wanna know where

Somebody tell me where

The love has all gone

So where has the love
