I am

what I am who knows

what I am you know

I am the depths of the sea

I am the black up above

my presence brings fear

but my message is love

the sun is my mother

the moon is my wife

i breathe in death

but i bring forth life

the man calls me nigger

the truth can you figure

eat my flesh drink my blood

and there is none bigger

my gift is the seasons

to reap and to sow

to bring forth fruit

when the river when the river overflow

what i am who knows

what i am you know
