Why did your ancestors travel those distant waves?
Stole millions of people, and turned them into slaves
Why were the victims not compensated or even set free
Instead they were being bred and held in captivity
Why did you not forsee the awakening of the captive?
You chose to be an accessory to the crime, denying the right to live
They bought good, goods, for a bad reason
I can now firmly say this, with no fear of being charged with treason
If you really believe slavery was a right, walk with your hand in the air
Other wise sponsor me for my journey out of here
I am not a beggar, and wish nothing for nothing
All i have is my poetry, and the hope that you will give me something
I need to raise at least £52,000 so as to return home
£1,000 for every year of my captivity, left on the streets to roam
Not supporting this cause, will put your county into greater recession
Do the right thing and stop moaning about over population
