Proof
You have no proof
You have no evidence
You act through fear and guilt
You act in self-defense
Beneath the tree
Before the heat of day
My mother kissed my face
And pointed East to say
While you are here
You have this little space
To learn to bear the beams
Upon your sunburned face
Upon your sunburned face
And I am black
But oh my soul is white
White like the English child
While I am black as night
You are the proof
You have no evidence
You act through fear and guilt
You act in self-defense
Beneath the tree
Before the heat of day
My mother kissed my face
And pointed East to say
While you are here
You have this little space
To learn to bear the beams
Upon your sunburned face
Upon your sunburned face
And I am black
But oh my soul is white
White like the English child
While I am black as night
You are the proof
