Finally Free from Ancestry by Samantha Lindo

FINALLY FREE

It was never simple
Always shades of grey
Always a bitterness
Before the sweetness fades away

My body fused with you
I made my home in what you do
I burnt my soul but made it through
To being whole
Without

The rush of you
The rush of you
The rush of you

You owned all the bodies
That bled to make you sweet
You sold all your solace that
I thought was

Meant for me
Meant for me
Meant for me

So stand on your veranda
Looking down on me
Sugar, wait a little longer
Til I’m finally free

You posed all the problems
That claimed eternity
With your face to solemn
You saw right

Into me
Into me
Into me

So stand on your veranda
Looking down on me
Sugar, wait a little longer
Til I’m

Finally free
