| Quasheba, Quasheba
|
| You’re free now, you’re free now
|
| How does your spirit fly?
|
| Blood of your blood
|
| Bone of your bone
|
| By the grace of your strength we have life
|
| From the Golden Coast of Ghana
|
| To the bondage of Grenada
|
| You kept the dream of hope alive
|
| They burned your body
|
| They cursed your blackness
|
| But they could not take your lights
|
| Quasheba, Quasheba
|
| You’re free now, you’re free now
|
| How does your spirit fly?
|
| Blood of your blood
|
| Bone of your bone
|
| By the grace of your strength we have life
|
| Raped and beaten, your babies taken
|
| Starved and sold and sold again
|
| Ain’t you a woman, of love deserving
|
| Ain’t it somethin' you survived?
|
| Quasheba, Quasheba
|
| You’re free now, you’re free now
|
| How does your spirit fly?
|
| Blood of your blood
|
| Bone of your bone
|
| By the grace of your strength we have life
|
| You dreamt of home, you dreamt of freedom
|
| You died a slave, you died alone
|
| You came from warriors who once built empires
|
| Ashanti’s kingdom carries on
|
| Quasheba, Quasheba
|
| You’re free now, you’re free now
|
| How does your spirit fly?
|
| Blood of your blood
|
| Bone of your bone
|
| By the grace of your strength we have life
|
| You were forgotten, almost forsaken
|
| Your children founded generations
|
| Your strength sustained them
|
| They won their freedom
|
| Traced their roots to find you
|
| Quasheba, Quasheba
|
| You’re free now, you’re free now
|
| How far your spirit’s flown
|
| Blood of your blood
|
| Bone of your bone
|
| By the grace of your strength we are home
|
| Blood of your blood
|
| Bone of your bone
|
| By the grace of your strength we are home
|
| By the grace of your strength we are home
|
| We are home
|
| We are home
|
| We are home |
