Yes I am colored,
But I ain’t your nigger.
I am your way to oneness,
I am the humanitarian trigger.
I am the trigger for revolution,
Whenever there is oppression.
I am the trigger for reason,
Whenever there is dogmatization.
I am the trigger for ascension,
Whenever there is assumption.
I am the trigger for assimilation,
Whenever there is discrimination.
On our shackled shoulders America was built.
Yet how come we are still hated to the hilt!
