My Blood is Gold

From ancient times I knew my blood was gold

By carrying love and strength that never grew old.

A living legacy of our great ancestors

A beautiful story of struggles and success

I knew my blood was gold.

 

Generations and generations have passed

And I knew my blood was gold.

Privilege that was fought for and never owned

A beautiful yet complex story entitled:

My blood is gold

 

Time stood still

Yet I knew my blood was gold

Cornrows of power and creativity

Love and Peace built on unity

The year is 2024 and today my blood is still gold.
