about

From the album "The Life"

lyrics

When the first tower came down
we were already gone
but it meant that we were
never to return

The last was pulled five years later
The error of the era
had been effaced, with too much
of a lesson to learn

In that time, the man I'd known
as the man to look up to
reduced to rubble in
gradual self-demolition

and in his place was erected
some facade that masked, but
betrayed, a psychotic
desperate contrition

It was done
Thirty-three plus one
Thousands of displaced negroes
plus his son
