lyrics

A shadow looms over our past and future

we traveled through a blood-stained gate

something unsightly inside

Passed on pain with no words to explain

Tragedy birthed me, so how can I live?

Torn from my roots by fear

Foolish pride in what was forced on me

seeking something far out of reach

Was I given this name I bear?

Or was I branded out of sight

Secrets hidden, genealogies erased and denied

I walk through life, legacy unseen

Others can't hide what's etched in their skin

Only so much in common, but this question, it persists

Reminded til the end of eternity

Of what might of been and what can never be

A future, free, never severed

Was I given this name I bear?

Or was I branded out of sight

Piecemeal, the peace we earned, gone in what seems like a flash

And how can we ever get it back?

I walk through life, legacy unseen

Others can't hide what's etched in their skin

Only so much in common, but this question, it persists

Reminded til the end of eternity

Of what might of been and what can never be

A future, free, never severed

History is a nightmare and I have to wake up
