Nigerian Roots
I came from Him, and where do you think I’m going?
He guided them, for me to see, is how I’m showing.
Brought here to America thru anarchy and deception,
Fighting back over 400 years with nothing as a weapon.
My ancestral bloodline screaming out to all of Nigeria!
Look at cha Brother, trying to do this for all of Africa.
Not just, but here lies the ties that bind the kinship,
We owe us, not just me or you, it’s our relationship.
Our Ummah in India has taken lead and are out front,
Supporting this movement that the west do not want.
This will free the world from the grafting of a tyrant,
Back into the molded Atom, after Adams initial variant.
Thru the middle passage as a Muslim thru and thru,
Taken away, just to reconnect, all the way back to you.
Where am I going? Hopefully after this I’ll go home,
Closely by, seeing Muhammad (saw) near God’s Thrown.
The X-Slave, still in many ways, until chains are released,
Nigeria, India, Mecca nor Madinah will see any peace.
Oppression, Genocide, New Slavery, camps with boots,
Freedom, Justice, and Equality, are My Islamic Roots.
