verse 1 
Em 
  Black rage is founded on two-thirds a person 
Am 
  Raping and beatings and suffering that worsens 
Em            D        Bm    Am   G 
  Black human packages tied up in strings  
  Em                         Am            Bm   
  Black rage can come from all these kinds of things.

  deafening silence and social control,  
  Em                      Am               Bm 
  black rage is found in all forms in the soul,

Em                  Am                   G                    Em 
  When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I’m feeling sad, 
Am                                                     G                  Em
