Tunnel Out

Tunnel Out

A Poem by Abdul Batin Osman Bey
"

A tribute to Marcus Garvey and those who woke up

"

It was the Blackman who gave I the Torah

A Blackman who gave me the Bible

It was the same Blackman who gave me the Quran

He made his impressions deep in my mind

He gave me what I thought I never could find

So I give thanks to the Mighty I everyday

God was the one who sent Marcus Garvey my way

 

I was never a slave

I always knew my identity

But JAH sent the prophet to me

The Holy Spirit come down and set me free

A mallet on the head

Hand reached out pulled me up from the grave

I learned my lessons

I learned my place

Everyday I feel the blessings

The truth no one can erase

Until the day I die I’ll proclaim the Holy name

I’m not alone many others are doing the same

And I’ll be brought back to the place before my birth

 

I’m not trying to get in the way

I have to say what I have to say

Let everyone embrace true humanity

Understand we have only one destiny

Stop playing king of the hill

How many more babies must be killed?

Justice and peace is what God wills

 

Time for a reality check

Return to the garden

The New Flower is the place of Eden

Those who resist make Satan their friend

I invite all those who want salvation

Come to Zion Mecca and change your vibration

If everyone embraces reality

We will finally end this childish fantasy

Awake our minds with equality

No more burden no more slavery

The ancient days will return

Together we will laugh and sing while Babylon burns

 

Give thanks and praises to the Asiatic Moon God of Israel
