pari shah - chloe cooley lyrics
born into this land where my story began
1793 in bertie township, bounded to flee
forced by the hands of the american revolution
where my destiny unfolded
in the farms of bertie, captured by benjamin hardison
along went my freedom, all my efforts in vain
sold off to adam vrooman, like a piece of property
a chattel they called it, a cruel atrocity
cooking, cleaning, and washing, was that all to life?
i took a stand in the hopes to set free
then came that fateful day, darkest of them all
march 14, 1793, a date i still recall
vrooman, with grеat violence, tied, gaggеd, and dragged me to a boat
where i was shipped across the niagara river
in the rumors of abolition and freedom
to be sold off once again
setting the stage for the abolishment of slavery
finally, freeing my brothers and sisters, you see
as my face became a part of history
my name is chloe cooley
and this is my story
