Quasheba, Quasheba Songtext

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 [?] was taken
Starved and [?]
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's the statement that won their freedom
Trace their roots to find you [wailing?]

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
