Hearing The Call – Lyrics by Martin Thomas Paavilainen

Where is the black man, where’s the first women and men?
You forgot us and you bit the feeding hand,
You went swimming in the oceans, drank the potions, and mimicked our emotions.
Become afraid if we come a closer,
isn’t it strange like the fruit of the southern tree, black blood on the leaves,
you’d rather see us dead than living free, physical and mental captivity,
see the strange fruit ain’t sweet, how could you forget about us,
was it because you had to bow down for us,
now this building my father built ain’t allowed to us,
what happened to the self confidence of the black men,
destroyed by your laws of attraction,
brainwashed since back then, but it’s time to think dirty,
we are strong ambitious beautiful black women and men,
the world’s biggest inspiration, original nation,
waking up to the call is highly contagious, but its only dangerous,
to the black man’s haters, I can hear the call, and no longer fear at all,
face the man in charge, tell him here we are,

Yeah I can hear the call, you could cut both my ears off,
and I would still hear the call, even if it drives you insane,
I keep my hands on the wheel in the car,
and if we build a wall we can brake down a wall,
shake away the thought, of us not being great ‘cause it’s wrong,
can’t be afraid to be involved, haters will either wish us harm or keep wishing us harm,
most of our leaders are long gone, I wonder where the new ones are?
We here we black we strong and we hear the call!
