Lyrics Silent - Dee C'rell feat. Richelle Claiborne

I moved on
I moved on
I moved on
Egypt could not hold me
Papyrus scrolls foretold of my arrival
But the archival nature of ancient tombs
Alerted those who chose to wound me
So I moved on
Greece could not out-think me
I showed them a system of mathematics
That would've kept them frantic in their search
For ways to determine my people's greatness from birth
But I kept the most important formulae in my head
They just tried to prove me wrong instead
So I moved on
Rome could not conquer me
She didn't know that Hannibal was my brother
Ogun my father
Ngombe throwing blade tattooed on my left
Mabo blade on my right
My arms became scythes and slew everyone in my sight
With no one left to fight
I moved on
Spain could not enslave me
I spoke in holy tongues to statues of Mary
While lighting candles in cathedrals
I fed arroz con pollo to the spirits of my defeated Moorish ancestors
To give me strength and them revenge
Then I tied angel wings to the side of slave ships
And flew my people home, first class
While I moved on
America can't stop me
I'm on the path of self-discovery
Bringing positive mental health, political tenacity
Spiritual veracity and passing it like peas at the dinner table
My children will be able to understand and to
Thrive on the knowledge of what it is to be divine
And no longer need to move on
I moved on
