[Verse 1]
In 1492 you came upon these shores
Seven hundred years, educated by the Moors
17th Century: genocide and the gun
Middle Passage blessed to market the Africans

[Chorus]
In the so-called "Lands of God"
My kind were treated hard
From back then until now
I see, and you agree
We have been a misrepresented people
From back then until now
Just see my family tree
We have been a misrepresented people
We have been a misrepresented people

[Verse 2]
19th century: slavery destroyed
Soldiers who fought and won
What's known as "nigga boys"
20th century: with freedom in my hand
We invent ideas
Which helped us save a land

[Chorus]
But while I prayed to God
My moms and pops got whored
From back then until now
You'll see our history
We have been a misrepresented people
From back then until now
Just see my family tree
We have been a misrepresented people
Yes, we have been a misrepresented people
