Brutalization
Forced Americanization
Tell me...
How do you wipe away the tears of a nation?
~~~~~Through concentration on elevation
~~~~~Justice and equalization
Hell naw...
          The tears will never fade
          Our history will remain
          ~~~The yesterdays of our people,
          ~~~The blood shed
          ~~~The pain, the rain, and cultural strain
          The tears will never fade
          Our history will remain
So, I ask again
     How do you wipe away the tears of a nation?
My thoughts:  You can not and you will not
Sure we can remain strong--move on--keep on keeping on
But we can never forget where we've been
No doubt, we can fight the ignorance
Rise up against the multiculturally inexperienced
Overriding those who were misguided
And decided
To try
To keep us inferior but
***We can never forget where we've been***
***We Can Never Forget Where We've Been***
     No matter how high we climb...
***WE MUST NEVER FORGET WHERE WE'VE BEEN***
