Smiling Black Faces
I see slow genocide
Bodies strung like tanning hides
Oh, and the fly covered babies
And in the mirror love
I see another sun
I will try hard to smile back at me
It's no burnt cork affair
It's no undue despair
I know a joy that's mocked
And I know a grief
I know a slave name
And I know a cold shame
And I know I cried in disbelief
And I see a porno star
Loaded on alcohol
I see a rolling stone
And I see a creep
Coming to on my knees
Empty hands full of all I will keep
Smiling black faces
Can anyone see?
Is anything radical in wantin' to be?
And on his wedding day
They took Sean Bell away
Cops let their bullets spray
In the same city where I am a man
And when the gavel fell
Over that bloody hell
Everyone walked away
No one even got canned
This nation's compromised

Just shrugged and turned its eyes
Some maybe shook their heads
And muttered 'What a shame'
But his body's my body's
Your bodies could die in pain
Smiling black faces
Is anyone free?
Is anything radical in wantin' to be?
But I see love breaking through
Right through the face of cool
Time to heed Nelson's call
Not to let self stay small
Know we can conquer all of this bullshit
If we know where we stand
Square on the side of love
Know how to arm a dove
I know, I want to sing so I know I can
And if there are joys to come
If there is movin' on
If there is love abounding, let it sustain
Oh, coo coo brown babe
Black baby with my last name
And I can see smiling black faces
I can see smiling black faces
I can see smiling black faces
Keepin' their teeth
Sayin' fuck grief
What a release
