[Chorus]
G#m
Blood and bones are what we're made of
F# C#
Not enough steel to reconcile
D# G#m
Crying out into the darkness
F# C#
One sure way to feel alive
D# G#m
Demon mouths lined with halos
F# C#
Thinly veiled, but no surprise
D# G#m
Rest assured, a welcomed surplus
F# C# C#m
Of systematic lies

[Verse 1]
G#m
This child ain't mine but my hands are tied
F# G#m
She's a life of bounty, and her skin is white
G#m
Under my care she'll play and thrive
F# Fb G#m
In a few years, I'll be cast aside
G#m
I was once a noble daughter
F# G#m
Our kingdom spanned the breadth of Ghana
G#m
But I was captured for the silver
F# Fb G#m
Sent across the sea to a land unknown
G#m
Our rival sold me to some white men
F# G#m
Skin as though it came from heaven
G#m
When they bound us to their will
F# Fb G#m
They trapped themselves in hell as well
[Chorus]
G#m
Blood and bones are what we're made of
F# C#
Not enough steel to reconcile
D# G#m
Crying out into the darkness
F# C#
One sure way to feel alive
D# G#m
Demon mouths lined with halos
F# C#
Thinly veiled, but no surprise
D# G#m
Rest assured, a welcomed surplus
F# C# C#m
Of systematic lies

[Verse 2]
G#m
One brother white, the other black
F# G#m
One brother loved and the other's trash?
G#m
One brother kept, the other sold
F# Fb G#m
Kinship denied is kinship still
G#m
Bred in bone and bathed in blood
F# G#m
Two brothers begged for light and love
G#m
White father twisting his own soul
F# Fb G#m
To deny what all must know
[Chorus]
G#m
Blood and bones are what we're made of
F# C#
Not enough steel to reconcile
D# G#m
Crying out into the darkness
F# C#
One sure way to feel alive
D# G#m
Demon mouths lined with halos
F# C#
Thinly veiled, but no surprise
D# G#m
Rest assured, a welcomed surplus
F# C# C#m G#m
Of systematic lies
[Chorus]
G#m
Blood and bones are what we're made of
F# C#
Not enough steel to reconcile
D# G#m
Crying out into the darkness
F# C#
One sure way to feel alive
D# G#m
Demon mouths lined with halos
F# C#
But its's no surprise
D# G#m
Rest assured, a surplus
F# C# C#m C# C#m G#m
