I am Bakari
(Dedicate to Bakari Henderson)
Your life was cut short by racist, murderous hands a worst of sins I fail to comprehend, Heaven is never a mile away I believe you have arrived there safe my friend, Life is but a fleeting moment, the sweeter to know yours was well spent.
He is Bakari, She is Bakari, I am Bakari, We all are Bakari, Be our guiding light from heaven as we journey on Life's Safari.
Your legacy will continue to flow in our blood beneath our black skin We will travel in the footsteps of places where you have been, Dr Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela showed us how to stay peaceful and win We will challenge the mindsets of ignorant racists who wouldn't let us in, In honour of you, Greece is where I will begin.
He is Bakari, She is Bakari, I am Bakari, We all are Bakari,
Be our guiding light from heaven as we journey on Life's Safari.
