Door Of No Return - Steel Pulse

I’ve returned through the door of no return

On Goree Island

I’ve returned through the door of no return

On Goree Island

Oh I remember I once dressed as a king

Decked in fine robes and everything

The blood that’s in my veins is pure royalty

I ruled many kingdoms and ruled many dynasties

Then all of a sudden I was in a state of shock

Caught and thrown on the auction block

Just like Jesus I was flogged and mocked

Now human cargo yes they said I wasn’t coming back

I was that prisoner who was fighting to be free

Free from my enemies who came and capture me

That was the years of brutality

Cannot be wiped away so easily

Although they have removed the chains

They try so hard to wash my brain

Want I to bow my head in shame

But when I think of the Motherland

I hear the spirits call my name

Lets light the torch let Babylon burn yah!

I’n I' survive yeah heh!

Gory Goree, gory Goree gory Goree

Brand new story

Gory Goree, gory Goree

Got the power and the glory

On Goree Island

A Goree Island in a Senegal
