I'm going home, goin' home North Carolina is crying in my soul Creator I'm reaching out to you Tell them on the other side That they are alive within my soul
Return their prayers that run through my veins Return the land and heal her pain The hidden truth, tell the world The blues - where it comes from!
I'm going home, goin' home
Where the Neuse River Runs through a land Where my great grandmother sleeps Under the Earth, blood of Skarura nation was free
I hear Nigerian chains They say are buried real deep Tobacco fields, Trail of tears Stolen people on stolen land
