I Stand Accused by Isaac Hayes from The Isaac Hayes Movement

i stand accused

hated for standing my ground

hated for sixty-two years

by my own mother

yes, my mother

no, no daddy in evidence

so?

i had a GRANDDADDY!

PTL!

he was a praying man

yes, ROME WALTERS  prayed fervently for me

by ten years old

i had read the entire liberal arts section of the library dry

the low whore forced me into isolation and slavery

when my GRANDDADDY

or preying eyes  were not around

no, i am not pitiful,'

nor am i forsaken

i am not defeated

no, i am not lost

i am not confused or crazy

i am not arrogant

and i do know my place in this HUE MAN RACE

yes, i am very thirsty

yes, i am tired, 'woe' out

i am a brilliant black woman

caught in the hell of white supremacy

caught between ignorant racists

with cloven tongues

and poor defeated, jealous kneegrows

envious of the ways of the oppressor

imps glad to be servants

self loathing, crabs in a barrel

pretend christians that will not give JESUS CHRIST

an amen

so?

GOD KNOWS

GOD SEES

GOD MOVES

GOD  knows me

LOVES me

LOVES  mine

YES, IT IS ALL IN DIVINE ORDER

(dear lord come into the hearts of every man, woman and child that desires to love you, that dares to love and care for every MAN/WO/MAN/CHILD THAT DWELLS UPON THIS EARTH!

IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF THE HOLY GHOST I SUBMET MY SINCERE FERVENT PRAYER REQUEST.)

BEAMING!
