I was dragged by braids
On a sandy beach
I was pulled near you
But beyond your reach
You were bound and gagged
When you heard me cry
Your spirit was wounded
With each wrenching try
For you thrusted and pulled
Trying to break free
So that neither of us
Would know slavery
You forgot the strength
Of the rope and the chain
You only remember
Your manhood shame
You couldn’t help yourself
And you couldn’t help me
You’ve carried that fact
Down our history
We have survived
Those centuries of hate
And we do not deny
Their bruising weight
