I am wounded and strong I am Black and erased I am bailiff and inmate I am vulnerable and guarded I am liberator and victim I do not own my sovereignty It cannot be bought or sold I do not own the ground I stand on It is not for sale I am captain to my feet Navigating the ship of me The mast that is my mind I direct its sails To choreograph The voyage of me Wind is fuel When my ship Meets the sea Yes Not the owner I am the captain of me
