Let every man and woman lay down their lives.

We will not let them harm our children or take them away from

us and let them be raised in their foster care systems.

Am I right, sisters?

where discipline reigns here.

Education will be used to outsmart the white man.

They brought us here in slave ships,

but we had all the power.

They didn't know they were bringing us in as a Trojan Horse

to one day wreak havoc on this land,

the one day take over this land for the will of the people!

The one day take over this land, rest in that, children!

Rest in that as you start your day.
