I don't need time to talk to God
He done been silent all my life
Holy Father just like mine
Worlds apart, we're stars aligned
No more faith, but I'll be fine
I ain't takin' what ain't mine
Sing about it, Kumbaya
Ain't a thing gon' change my mind
Y'all never showed me mercy
No wonder I don't believe
Y'all never showed me mercy
No wonder I don't believe
I know Heaven is a lie
My baptism was a fire
I know devils are alive
To pick the red 'cause they all white
I was born inside a fight
From the ocean in the sky
In His image, I arise
Ay, Bathala, oh my God
Y'all never showed me mercy
No wonder I don't believe
Y'all never showed me mercy
No wonder I don't believe
They told me pray for my skin
Melanin was a sin
And I was born an abomination
Our nation had no notion of Heaven, just home
Where the tethers between this world and the next
Was reached through one breath
Inhale, Kapwah
Exhale, you are erased
No trace of our past
But the memories now pass through brown lips
Turning pink, our skin turning white
Reflections of our mind inside us
Bathala cries
We've forgotten who we are
Outside the wire close
She begs us to remember
(Kumbaya, Kumbaya, Kumbaya)
