      FIRST PLACE

      Physical freedom,

      Mental bondage.

      But yes, the African-American is free

      Free to dream, free to live life

      Free to ponder the important American things.

      No more slavery

      I am free, you understand

      No more slavery

      I am free, but can you give me a hand?

      With

      The American dream

      I can see it afar off

      Sometimes even think I can touch it.

      Most elusive it is really

      But all my efforts I will muster

      To find

      What they say I can have

      What they say I can achieve

      But how can I do it

      when my life is messed up, dark, bruised – busted.

      I’m not homeless, I have a place to live

      Cracked walls, dim lights, shaking floors, and critters

      Shall I be quiet? No.

      If I shut up about it they’d call me a quitter.

      Still, you can succeed, I’m told

      Just stay out of trouble and stay in school,

      If it don’t fall down around me.

      If I do these two things

      I’ll be as good as gold

      I’ll reach the American dream

      Before I’m too old.

      What if I told you no matter how hard I work,

      I’m still left out.

      Not completely by your doing – you don’t have that much power

      This ‘dream’ is not reachable because of Satan, the devil, the devourer.

      No matter what you call him, it’s one and the same.

      We’ve got to fight back, gotta call on God’s Name.

      Have you heard?

      The reward is with the least among men

      The first shall be last and the last shall be first

      Now why is black folks always last and black things considered cursed?

      Always have and probably always will,

      That is, until

      Until, we call on Jesus,

      Jesus, for real.

      Lord, show us Your might.

      We keep coming up last in the

      areas of life.

      From one corner of the world to the other

      We are despised

      for being the darker brother

      Jesus, we’re last but with your help we’ll
