Title: ONLY RASTAFARI Post by: albert_tempie on November 01, 2010, 07:29:17 PM ONLY RASTAFARI
BY RAS ALBERT WILLIAMS (C) 2010 With the end of every day We Enslave I and I ancestors anew With our obedience to decrees that address the aspirations of our captors. Our passivity breeds and ugly offspring Colonisation in its latest form. Only Rastafari sees differently. His patriotic chant of REPATRIATION is a threat to the establishment that thrives on the blood of a hurdling mass… our people. Black because Mother Africa built her nest in the sun TOO BLACK for sympathy TOO BLACK for respect But black enough to be reduced to a beast of burden. With every new morning. We sell out Toussaint L’Overture. WE hid in the comfort of our anonymity. BEHIND A SEA OF FACES Paul Boogle died not for us you say. Neither did Congo Ray. WE are content to be classless being. Whose destiny it is to feed the hungry worms…the descendants of greedy colonialists. ONLY RASTAFARI FEELS THE PAIN. With the passing of centuries WE bury our glorious heritage with alien tongues…mode of dress, religion that tames the will to rebel, Like Hannibal, that GREAT AFRICA WARRIOR who tried to abort the slaughter of an entire African race ONLY RASTAFARI WILL PUT UP A FIGHT. Only Rastafari will not surrender his pride His dreadlocks circles his shoulder like mighty madras fluffing in the winds of change that are blowing across this planet… Where the BLACK STAR LINER will salvage the corpse of millions of Negroes whose spirits returned to the MOTHERLAND. Only RASTAFARI cares To think black To talk black To act black To be black and be proud of that fact That our negritude is is endowed by a Black God in a Black Heaven That Will reward the Black revolutionaries With a throne of black gold Upon a pedestal of Black ebony For all the world to see ONLY RASTAFARI KNOWS |
