Black Man, How Did You Fall - We´ve Fallen But We Can Get Up

Black Man, How Did You Fall - We´ve Fallen But We Can Get Up

von Adisa Franklin

Black man how did you fall from such a high estate

When did it happen, what far and distant date

In Africa long ago, you had built great pyramids

Yet, you knowledge of how you did it has been cleverly hid

Black man how did you fall from such a high estate

You were made a slave that others love to hate

It is you that gave light to the human race

Yet today you can´t even keep pace

Loock at all you´ve given; you gave meaning to the word civilized

Yet today you are despised, looked down upon and often critized

Black man how did you fall from such a high estate

What caused this tragedy, who engineered this dark fate

Black man how did you fall from such a high estate

When will you rise again, how long must we wait ?

Before you, Black man, take a stand

And act like you know that you are a man

There are inside of you all the answers you seek

To make you strong again instead of so weak

So when your woman calls and says, where are you my dear

You can say with confidence, the mans right here.
