True History

[Intro]
It's true history
Black people, why you went missing
Uh-yeah, oh-yeah

[Verse 1]
A long-long-long time ago
They bought us an' sold us out
But little do they know
That we are heading to home

[Chorus]
'Cause what they hid from the wise an' prudent
It now reveal to babe an' suckling (It's true!)

[Verse 2]
If my people did never obey
They wouldn't live to see another day
They were mistreated along the way
They were even used an' refused
They were all in chain around their hands an' feet
There were all in chain (Oh-oh yeah)

[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh, it's true history
Why can't, why can't you see?
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, Jah love

[Verse 3]
If my people did never obey
They wouldn't live to see another day
They were even used an' refused
They were mistreated along the way
They were all in chain around their hands an' feet
There were all in chain
No alternator at all, they were hold in mowly
They were all in chain around their hands an' feet
It's true

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, black people, you don't know
I'm telling you so
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, only Jah know what you can do so
What you go do
