400 years I have suffered for you
400 years I have slaved
400 years I have suffered for you
I will never again

And I know that you're kind to your own kind
And I know I'm the color of dirt to you

But 400 years I have suffered for you
400 years I have slaved
400 years I have suffered for you
I will never again

And I know that it's wrong to kill
I've heard them say
And I know I never will
You hope, you wish so I say

400 years I have suffered for you
400 years I have slaved
400 years I have suffered for you
I will never again
