"Homecoming"
I'm going to Africa
where men are kings
And wear dashikis
where women are queens
And wear colorful and royal head wraps.
I'm going to a place
Where my roots
Are buried
Deep down in the
Land of gold
Where
My skin color was invented
And celebrated
I want to go where
The lands can tell you
Stories
That you can't learn in a book.
I want to go where
I came from
But never been.
I want to know who I was
And who I am
Before I became who I am
Today.
I want to go
Home
