Bled Miki - Di yo vinn an fas (English version) lyrics

[Intro] Our people got serious identity issues that I can't embrace Wouldn't be surprised if an Uncle Tom told I one day Slavery had a humanitarian aim And the white man came to civilize vertebrates That they're children of miscegenation That they got Hindu, Amerindian, all kinds of family But they got real heritage and it don't lie Just look at the skin, just look at the hair Still can't see it ? Just listen to em talk and you'll know You'll know (x2) [Verse 1] I'm gonna tell em straight up, what they don't wanna hear Cuz they might forget the past and dispraise the race Get chills lookin at the reflection of their face Cuz to em white is the sh**, and n***as are sh** Alas ! Alas ! Mental manipulation make em hate n***as And prefer white and amerindian But they ignore the empires we had And with the monument they've only made it worse A memorial teachin us that we were traitors And Africans were one in hand with the traders One day the French lies will die All they wanna do is extend the responsibility on we I said French but they ain't the only All oppressors do it, it's a f**in tactic They fuel the hate, and it's problematic Cuz they damn well know Africa is the richest [Refrain] So Tell em come face us If they ready to f** with us my n***a (x8) [Verse 2] Our spirits they laundered, so that many feel the burden of being colored Other to marry their daughter to the island mulattos Hoping their kids will be lighter than the rest, yo ! See that sh** on a daily basis We're a burden to ourselves, just a bunch of fetlocks You wanna be a fully fledged Frenchman Don't ever wanna be called African, you Caribbean Yet they tellin us "if we were born, just stay there" We must recognize our strength ! We're the color of the earth and what would it be without us ! Yet we look at each other in the spectacles of others ! Consequently conceding the win But let us rise and get grindin for we are kings Far from the scoundrels depicted in they're sayings ! In light of all we've created, come face to face and talk about it! [Refrain] So tell em come face us if they're ready to f** with us my n***a !
