Repatriation Plates (Extended 2)

Chorus

Prosperity let it rise again

From the roots to the dividends

We invest in us we circulate

Turn survival into generational plates

Roots and returns hand in hand

Repatriation of mind and land

From the diaspora to the shore

We’re building more than ever before

Verse 2

We talk ownership not just income

Equity stacked where we come from

Schools that teach who we really are

Health and land not just a car

Money moving inside the circle

Community strong never fragile

Assets growing children knowing

They don’t start behind the line

Some feel the call across the sea

Others build right where they be

Different paths the same demand

A future held in our own hands

Pre-Chorus

No matter where we plant the seed

Spirit strong in every deed

What was lost returns in time

Brighter days for every line

Chorus

Prosperity let it rise again

From the roots to the dividends

We invest in us we circulate

Turn survival into generational plates

Roots and returns hand in hand

Repatriation of mind and land

From the diaspora to the shore

We’re building more than ever before

Post-Chorus

Rise again rise again

Building more than ever before

Rise again rise again

Prosperity at our door

(Drums and bass ride out, ad-libs fading)

Prosperity…

Roots…

Returns…

Spoken-Word Outro

We write new chapters every sunrise

With every hand joined, hope multiplies

Not just stories we inherit —

but foundations we edit

Changing fate in real time

With each step, each climb

From city corners to sacred land

Bound by vision, linked by plan

This wealth is more than numbers stored

It’s freedom ringing, future restored

It’s children dreaming wide awake

And elders knowing what we make

No more settling — we define worth

Seeding value back to earth

Across borders, across years

We invest despite past tears

Prosperity is lived, not just spoken

Now the locks and chains are broken

This is the promise we return

A legacy that’s truly earned

Final Harmony/Chant

Roots and returns — forward still

Prosperity — by our will

Roots and returns — strong and true

The future bright — and overdue

Outro ad-libs, voices overlapping

Rising up, never turned

It’s our century — now it’s our turn
