lyrics

To my ancestors, those who came before
To my children, those who come after

My ancestors, those who came before
To my children, those who come after

My ancestors, those who came before
To my children, those who come after

I'm link in the chain
I'm link in the chain
I'm link in the chain that runs through out time

I was born free, kidnapped, carried in the belly of a slave ship
whip and strip of my of name/
Force to become a Christian and work in the fields/
built this country on my back with blood, sweat, and tears/
Family separated and sold then freed into chains/
oppressed by Jim Crow but still we overcame/
from shackles on my feet to marching in the street
my ancestors died so I can live free
