I AM A Slave [Verse 1: Black Thought] I am a slave Yes, I'm ony a slave They'll place my body in an unmarked grave In these confederate days It's kinda hard to lift every voice singing While worrying about how low the sweet chariots swinging I could swing from a tree, but hey I hope and pray that they don't kill me today I am still just a slave [Verse 2: Black Thought] I am a slave in the home of the brave A product of the triangular trade Please pardon my ways If I'm nervous or the slightest bit skittish In the presence of the Portugese, Spanish, Dutch, or British They kept me in colonial chains Tell me how to persuade them to chill Or to save me and still I'm a slave I hope and pray that they don't kill me today I am still just a slave #blackish #Iamaslave #theroots

The blackest, wokest (yep!), educational television episode (and sitcom) EVER!! Should be shown in history classes & I’d actually pay to see that Hamilton-esque musical! #blackish #history #ourstory #schoolhouserock #slavery #webuiltthis #conscious #Repost @theroots ・・・ I AM A SLAVE [Verse 1: Black Thought] I am a slave Yes, I'm ony a slave They'll place my body in an unmarked grave In these confederate days It's kinda hard to lift every voice singing While worrying about how low the sweet chariots swinging I could swing from a tree, but hey I hope and pray that they don't kill me today I am still just a slave [Verse 2: Black Thought] I am a slave in the home of the brave A product of the triangular trade Please pardon my ways If I'm nervous or the slightest bit skittish In the presence of the Portugese, Spanish, Dutch, or British They kept me in colonial chains Tell me how to persuade them to chill Or to save me and still I'm a slave I hope and pray that they don't kill me today I am still just a slave #blackish #Iamaslave #theroots
