Love is lost in a statement, now a plantation is my placement.

The white man saw me by the tree bark , he wants to take me because my skin's dark.

Lovely darkness covers my skin , I'm surrounded around evil kin.

Looking at butterflies so lucky to be free, butterflies you'll never be like me.

Wishing to leave every single night , wishing to join God in the light.

On the rise of a new sunset , I know my hope for freedom isn't done yet.

*This is obviously about being taken for slavery. Also the hope that many had to keep strong . R.I.P .. *
