Stumbling Block

There has to be a way
Over this stumbling block
Some way
Oh there has to be a way
To
Some way
My poor parents came here long time ago
With a dirty plan that was oh, so low
They came here searching for fortune and fame
Sugar and slaves was the name of the game
And now the legacy falls like rain
I can see the anger and I feel the pain
Oh there has to be a way
Some way
Over this stumbling block
Some way
Oh there has to be a way
To
Some way
Guilty conscience got the better of me
A river of tears that no one can see
Oh that family of mine, they've committed a crime
And now it bears down on this mind of mine
When I think of the blood and the history
And how my land is left with the legacy
Oh there has to be a way
Over this stumbling block
Some way
Oh there has to be a way
To
Some way
Because the system they've made
It puts us all in a shade
They say if you're black, get back
And if you're brown, stick around
And if you're white, you're allright
But I know, it's not right
Oh there has to be a way
Over this stumbling block
Some way
Oh there has to be a way
To
