Inheritance
Ignorance shows no mercy
With its claws in deep
Pain taught us our worth
Their hate is ours to feed
Prejudice within your borders
Built a country over our graves
Monuments upon our backs
Can't hide the lives you take
An agenda a century old
And I'm the next in line
This hate is My inheritance
Their scars, Their scars are mine
A cheap slogan and an orange shirt
Worn to deceive with all they burn
Broken promises and empty words
Was all our pain ever earned
What awareness is left to raise
Was this ever going to change
Your mind was already made
A cycle impossible to break
An agenda a century old
And I'm the next in line
This hate is My inheritance
Their scars, Their scars are mine
Strangled by the poverty
Asphyxiate the youth
What little hope abandoned
When it's light reached so few
Endure but never prosper
This is the fate of a slave
Branded by their atrocities
As we fall within in its wake
With its claws in deep
Pain taught us our worth
Their hate is ours to feed
Prejudice within your borders
Built a country over our graves
Monuments upon our backs
Can't hide the lives you take
An agenda a century old
And I'm the next in line
This hate is My inheritance
Their scars, Their scars are mine
A cheap slogan and an orange shirt
Worn to deceive with all they burn
Broken promises and empty words
Was all our pain ever earned
What awareness is left to raise
Was this ever going to change
Your mind was already made
A cycle impossible to break
An agenda a century old
And I'm the next in line
This hate is My inheritance
Their scars, Their scars are mine
Strangled by the poverty
Asphyxiate the youth
What little hope abandoned
When it's light reached so few
Endure but never prosper
This is the fate of a slave
Branded by their atrocities
As we fall within in its wake
