His Hero Is Gone
Monuments To Thieves
Statues built for bastards
Monuments to thieves
Who carved the name of the white man
On the backs of the trees that hung black bodies
Like ornaments
Like ornaments
Monuments to thieves
Monuments to thieves
Erections for your heros:
The liars and the thieves
Who hung the name of the white man
On the signs of our streets
Like ornaments
Like ornaments
Monuments to thieves
Monuments to thieves
