The Untold Being Exposed

Black history is inherently American history
So tell me, why's it only taught in February?
I'm already enlightened as to the reason why
The bombs burst in the air on the 4th of July

Opening my eyes more & more every year
Pineal gland has me focused & seeing clear
Just adhere to the cheers of their curriculum
Even if the equation computes the wrong sum

From day one we've been led astray
Told our origin began with slavery
The bravery of many elders was never told
Now the truth is inevitably being exposed
