Stevie Wonder - Misrepresented People songtekst

Je score:

In 1492 you came upon these shores.

Seven hundred years, educated by the moors;

17th Century-- genocide and the gun

Middle Passage blessed to market the Africans.



In the so-called ““Land of God””

My kind were treated hard.

From back then until now

I see, and you agree--

We have been a misrepresented people.



From back then until now

Just see my family tree;

We have been a misrepresented people.

We have been a misrepresented people.



19th century-- slavery destroyed.

Soldiers who fought and won

What''s known as ““nigger-boys””.

20th century-- with freedom in my hand,

We invent ideas

Which helped us save a land,



But while I prayed to God

My moms and pops got whored.

From back then until now

You''ll see our history;

We have been a misrepresented people.



From back then until now

Just see my family tree;

We have been a misrepresented people

Yes, we have been a misrepresented people.



1969-- Black power's at the door.

1982-- Hop-hop was on the floor.

1992-- Gangsta crack prevailed.

1999-- Our colors filled the jails.



It is through the grace of God

That we all were not scarred.

From back then until now

We see no comedy;

We have been a misrepresented people.



From back then until now

Were we still a mystery;

We have been a misrepresented people.

Yes, we have been a misrepresented people.



Though we march across time,

A sea of victories,

We have been a misrepresented people.



From back then until now

You know we made you grow;

We have been a misrepresented people.

We have been a misrepresented people.



From back then until now

We see our destiny

To never be a misrepresented people.



Yes, we march across to time to free

A melody

To never be a misrepresented people.



No you must never be a misrepresented people.
