THE HAITIAN REVOLUTION Lyrics by NANI (2neat)

2022

[Intro]
(Whyyyyyyyyy)
(Why)
(Oooooh)
(Yuh, yuh, yuh)
[Chorus]
Late in the 1700s, the empire of France had enslaved half a million Haitians
Island had sixty percent of Earth's sugar and coffee, so it was a wanted location
France saw potential for profit
And suddenly they had high interest, like loans with inflation
Working conditions were terrible
Lifespan was sixteen on all of the sugar plantations
[Verse 1]
One day a man named Toussaint L'Ouverture
Went to Henri Christophe and said "we gotta try" (Woah)
He ain't make movies but he had to warn a bro
He said "if we don't go now we gon' die"
Gathered thе slaves and then started a war against thе empire
'Cause there was no alternate answer (Woah)
France just kept making their money, their sack kept on growin' (Yo)
Like they had testicular cancer (Woah, yuh)
[Bridge]
No it was not too late
French army bought the bait
Even the states tried to help and conglomerate
News outlets out in the west made a narrative
They said they're violent and tried to indoctrinate (Oooooh)
Haiti became the first independent black republic
That overcame slavery and got the state
But it all came with a cost
Had to pay reparations to France
'Cause they "didn't cooperate" (Noooo)
[Verse 2]
Over the course of a hundred and twenty-two years
They paid France thirty billion dollars
They said they damaged their profits
But really it's France that was keepin' these slaves in some collars
It don't make sense that they're paying for freedom
Especially since their own freedom was stolen
They sent in Polish soldiers just to kill 'em
But they helped out Haiti so we rock with Poland
[Chorus]
Late in the 1700s, the empire of France had enslaved half a million Haitians
Island had sixty percent of Earth's sugar and coffee, so it was a wanted location
France saw potential for profit
And suddenly they had high interest, like loans with inflation
Working conditions were terrible
Lifespan was sixteen on all of the sugar plantations
[Outro]
(Oooooooooh)
(Ooooooooooooooooh)
