Story behind the song
The Phoenix is black people. Mixed people. My kids....me. The death of the African from slavery and what was born from the atrocity was the phoenix people.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Born out the ashes of my ancestors blood sweat and tears
I was lost but now I’m here
And here I stand a black man strong and eternal
A product of slavery hells fiery inferno
The fires that destroyed my people and killed their gods
The fires that replaced them with Jesus and left scars
Stolen from the mother land and stripped them of their language
That’s why blacks today can’t relate to African heritage
That journey was a travesty, across the globe
On a ship with many horrors to America where they can be sold
Like they was cattle, tell me how could they survive?
These flames that would eventually annihilate their kind-
In time their customs erased and their women was raped
And these babies born black into the white mans race
A phoenix out the ashes of the Africans burned
A new breed of human being was born in the early morn
Called the Phoenix
Verse 2
The Phoenix was enslaved and the African was murdered
And the beatin’s continued to put logs in the furnace
And the fire got hotter and the Phoenix got stronger
The caged bird wept but it still sang songs of
{Freedom} freedom and peace be ready
To fly free again like they did over the Serengeti
Wings fully extended, the spirit bore witness
That it simultaneously ascend over Great Britain
My heart beats in rhythmic harmony with two drums
The Zulu long and the Tartan war drums in one song
The new bloodline the rebirth of mankind
Immortal on this planet until the ending of time
I will breathe through my family, finally ancestrally,
Belonging to God’s energy, cuz that just how he made me
Perfect in every way understand where you came from
His beloved Phoenix out the fire it was made from
Verse 3
They said a drop of black blood will make you black
Well a drop of white blood should do the same as that
See, we the Phoenix people draw birthrights from both races
Created beautiful with honey brown faces
From the Ankh and the Pyramids from Isis and Osirus
To weathered stone crosses and churches for King Jesus
From Shaka Zulu to King Arthur we descend
The children of the world majestic women and men
With wings made of fire I soar with the eagles
In the sky and being black is such a natural high
Tutankhamen, and the Sphinx, Poseidon and the Titans
The Celtic Iron Age, and the Vikings, and the Pirates
I exist in this world so spiritual
With the Merovingian blood in my veins please listen to me
Brother we come from all over Gods creation
Conceived from atrocities was blind but now I can see my Nation
