Lyrics Slave Queen - Judy Mowatt

Slave Queen

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 it’s 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 paint 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 rearranging yourself, you shall be punished
Everyone is as 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, aw yeah
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, sound queen, blind queen, deaf queens, unwind
Captive queens, I tell you unwind
Yeah yeah
I tell you unwind
Release your mind, release your mind
