Slave Queen Songtext
von Judy Mowatt

Slave queen, remove the shackle from your mind
Slave queens, remove the shackle and unwind!

I too was blind, but now I see
I have relinquished slavery mentality
And now that is time, for all the queens to go home
You're fashioning other nations; you don't seem to care

Your black lips red
Your eyes painted blue
You don't know yourself
And that's so true, oh!

Slave queen, remove the shackle from your mind
Slave queens, remove the shackle and unwind!

African queen, remove the shackle from your mind
War queens, remove the shackle and unwind!


I know there'll be a day, when you shall not flourish
For rearraging yourself, you shall be punished
Everyone is proud of their identity
Consider your beautiful richness, your quality

Now repair yourself (Repair yourself)
Take care of yourself (Take care of yourself)
It's Jah Jah life (It's Jah Jah life)
You don't own yourself! (no, no, no)

Slave queen, remove the shackle from your mind
I say all queens, remove the shackle and unwind!

African queen, remove the shackle from your mind
War queens, remove the shackle and unwind!

Slave queen, bound queen, blind queen, deaf queens, unwind!
Captive queens, I tell you unwind!

Yeah yeah
I tell you unwind!
