Decolonize Me
Decolonize my mind
Rip out of my mouth the tongue
That sings praises to the great divine
Decolonize my heart
Let me love the missionary
Who came and tore this place apart
How am I to learn to love again?
When I'm told my way of life is full of sin
How can I love my god
With all the nightmare this has been
His followers have settled down
And killed my next of kin
Mata a la patois
Olvidate el sistema
Del patriarcha Espanola
Decolonize my soul
Half of me will know god's light
And half will yearn for days of old
Rip out of my mouth the tongue
That sings praises to the great divine
Decolonize my heart
Let me love the missionary
Who came and tore this place apart
How am I to learn to love again?
When I'm told my way of life is full of sin
How can I love my god
With all the nightmare this has been
His followers have settled down
And killed my next of kin
Mata a la patois
Olvidate el sistema
Del patriarcha Espanola
Decolonize my soul
Half of me will know god's light
And half will yearn for days of old
