Better Off Alone

Unless I wanted to dig my grave I would work be illiterate and just behave I was taught the bible and told I would be saved But for centuries I was enslaved Than one day the civil rights movement came I died over and over so things wouldn’t be the same Emit Till Miss Parks and many more are why I claim My rights to be a free man which has been my aim I am not from Sierra Leone Which might of been my home Before they came unknown I was better off alone
