Bloodline



Bloodline

Your heritage o' noble son
Is a rich rewarding one
That goes back countless generations
To kings and queens of African nations

Your bloodline is of royalty
Of black pride and dignity
Mighty men and women of all kind
Contributed to your bloodline

Mighty warriors of great dignity
Is all part of your family tree
Kings and queens of great African tribes
All to your bloodline subscribes

Men and women of powerful minds
Add richness to your bloodline
A richness that is tried and true
Is the heritage that belongs to you?

Though you have been deterred
For four plus hundred years
By racial prejudice, doubts, and fears
Know, your time of prominence nears

You are endowed with a stable mind
To contribute to the good of all mankind
Seek within your heart and find
The heritage of your bloodline

H. Wilson
