Kaluyuti (Clouds Passing Over)
Strong (a poem for unity)
I might not be what you want me to be
so you might not see what you want to see
But if you gotta minute - listen what I got to say
It's year 2003 and it's a brand new day
there's a gap between my culture and the life that I lead
Some will call me an apple - some a bad seed
They have no idea how my heart will bleed
Their words and their attitude - I just don't need
I proud of who I am and I am proud of where I am from
Those spreadin' racism are just fuckin' dumb
If you're lookin at my life and say i've assimilated
you've simplified things a little more complicated
I hear other indians talk about the past
and will i do the same - fuck that
There's no time to dwell on what's already done
I've got too many things that I want to do
they don't include knives and they don't include guns
I talking about knowledge and sharing it too
there will be a time to make a stand and a time to fight
but if you do that - be sure the cause is right
because if the cause is right and the cause is just
greater numbers of people will be backing you up
history has repeatedly shown to us all
that united we stand and divided we fall
they weren't talkin about indians and indians alone
because this is a big world and a very big home
i have seen beautiful people and ugly ones too
no single colour comes into view
so the message i'm sending is not very long
i just want the human race to be stronger than strong!
