John Punch (remake)

1640 VA

John Punch tried to run away

Sentenced for his life, a slave

The families say, "When you coming home, now?"

The families say, "When you coming home?"

Two hundred and twenty-five years of hell

Started in America, that day

Folks from Africa (from Africa) taken away (from Africa)

Half a million souls out on the water (souls)

It is so cold, where the hell are we going?

The moon is the same, but now I'm all alone now

Families say, "When you coming home?"

Franklin and Armfield took their turn

Largest slave trading firm (use and abuse)

Hate, profit and cruelty (ohh)

Their specialty and their norm

Half a million souls out on the water

It's so cold, where the hell are we going?

The moon is the same, but now I'm all alone

Families say, "When you coming home?"

(Slave trade, while they take us away)

Think of this injustice now to the human race

Restitution (restitution, restitution)

Remembrance and recovery must take place now

Half a million souls (half a million souls) out on the water (ohh)

It is so cold, where the hell are we going? (So cold)

The moon is the same (oh, the same, but now)

But now I'm all alone now (I'm so alone, so alone)

Looking at the sea wishing you coming home now

Day and night (day and night) wishing you coming home now

You coming home now (you coming home now)

When you coming home? (When are you coming home?)
