| SOJOURNER TRUTH
By Kim
Look at me
Look at me
My arms are so spread
I’m waiting to get my child back
If I’m living or if I’m dead
I’ve been abused and
I’ve been crazed
Always waiting for my family to come back to me
And things will be the same
SOJOURNER TRUTH
By Kim
I don’t know when
I don’t know why
They’ll do these crazy things to us tonight
So wherever I go
Whatever I do
I’ll be always be safe when I believe in You
Anyway cause anytime I think of You
I can’t get You out of my head
I don’t know when
I don’t know why
Every night in my dreams I cry
Cause You’re the only one who guided me through
I really don’t know what to do about it all
So I’m always hoping and wishing that someday they’ll stop
And I’ll be free with you

Sojourner Truth was brave and strong
She fought for women’s rights all day
And all night long
She stood up to white people whenever she could

Oh yes she would
She loved to sing and dance her heart out
She never would give up and pout
She loved her people
And helped them when she could
She would do this
Oh yes she would

As big as a man
She was a woman of peace

LIVING STRONG
Sojourner Truth (Isabella Baumfree) 1797 - 1883
By Marissa She was born a slave
But kept on living strong
She lived a life of struggle
But kept on living strong
Her owner beat her to death
But she kept on living strong
Then her mother died of an infection in her leg
But she kept on living strong
Her father died of winter cold
But she kept on living strong
