White Girl Kisses

I have seen ash and flames

Buses burned to their frames

Dug the earth over many a friend

I don't want your mercy

I have seen brother lynched

Heard his gasps breathed his stench

Hung the noose struck the match myself

You don't know what that's like

I have seen men grown tame

Allahu akbar all wet with shame

There's no eyes that can see my pain

I don't want your pity

I have seen an apartheid state

The cobblestone echoes of my hate

Gonna die exiled on your American plate

You don't know what that's like

Your white girl kisses won't heal my wounds

Your white boy kisses won't heal my wounds
