Quasheba, Quasheba
 You're free now, you're free now
 How does your spirit fly?
 Blood of your blood
 Bone of your bone
 By the grace of your strength we have life
 From the Golden Coast of Ghana
 To the bondage of Grenada
 You kept the dream of hope alive
 They burned your body
 They cursed your blackness
 But they could not take your lights
 Quasheba, Quasheba
 You're free now, you're free now
 How does your spirit fly?
 Blood of your blood
 Bone of your bone
 By the grace of your strength we have life
 Raped and beaten, your babies taken
 Starved and sold and sold again
 Ain't you a woman, of love deserving
 Ain't it somethin' you survived?
 Quasheba, Quasheba
 You're free now, you're free now
 How does your spirit fly?
 Blood of your blood
 Bone of your bone
 By the grace of your strength we have life
 You dreamt of home, you dreamt of freedom
 You died a slave, you died alone
 You came from warriors who once built empires
 Ashanti's kingdom carries on
 Quasheba, Quasheba
 You're free now, you're free now
 How does your spirit fly?
 Blood of your blood
 Bone of your bone
 By the grace of your strength we have life
 You were forgotten, almost forsaken
 Your children founded generations
 Your strength sustained them
 They won their freedom
 Traced their roots to find you waiting
 Quasheba, Quasheba
 You're free now, you're free now
 How far your spirit's flown
 Blood of your blood
 Bone of your bone
 By the grace of your strength we are home
 Blood of your blood
 Bone of your bone
 By the grace of your strength we are home
 By the grace of your strength we are home
 We are home
 We are home
 We are home
