Cherokee Rose – Black Irish Indian

Cherokee Rose – Black Irish Indian Lyrics

Artist: Cherokee Rose
Song: Black Irish Indian

I am a Black Irish Indian
But you don’t know about me
Cuz nobody ever taught you
Your true history

You think it’s a simple matter
One side white one side black
In our fear and ignorance and paranoia
It’s knowledge that we lack

I’ve got an Irish slave owner’s blood
Running through my veins
‘Cause by the African woman that he loved
My father, got his name

I’ve got the blood and the spirit of the Indian
Deep within my soul
My mother’s Cherokee grandmother
Was a princess I am told

So I see through, I see right through
I see right through it all
‘Cause the truth for my brother and my sister and me
Is a very very different kind of history

I don’t profess to know for sure
But I believe none of us are pure
And in death, we’re all equal
I know it may seem confusin’

But that’s what happens when others do the choosin’
They draw the line and you pick a side
Then we all end up losin’
But I see through, I see right through

I see right through it all
‘Cause the truth for my brother and my sister and me
Is a very very different kind of history
I don’t profess to know for sure

But I believe none of us are pure
And in death, we’re all equal
I am a Black Irish Indian
But you don’t know about me

Cuz nobody ever taught you
Our true history
