black & blues – “a toast to the people (pieces of a man version)”
[vocals: victor brown]
[background vocals/written by: brian jackson and gil scott-heron]
[verse 1: victor brown]
and though it’s been too long
and too many years have p-ssed
and though the time has gone
the memory still holds fast
though, strange it may seem
we still live in the past
the essence of a black life
lost, cracked in the hourgl-ss
and ever since we came to this land
the south has rued the day
when we would stand as one
and raise our voices and say
you know there will be no more lynching
and no more talk of cl-ss
my sons and my daughters
won’t die in the hourgl-ss
[chorus: victor brown with background vocals by brian jackson and gil scott-heron]
a toast to david walker
a toast to martin king
a toast to all the leaders
who had a golden dream
