R&B singer and actor Jill Scott blasted America by changing the words of the National Anthem into claiming it is an oppressor state during a live performance on stage. 

Jill Scott was performing on the second day of the Essence Festival on the perceived systemic racism in America, saying the country is "not the land of the free." 

Essence, a lifestyle magazine that hosts the festival, commented, "Everyone please rise for the only National Anthem we will be recognizing from this day forward. Jill Scott, we thank you!"

The lyrics said:

"Oh say can you see by the blood in the streets / That this place doesn’t smile on you colored child / Whose blood built this land with sweat and their hands / But we’ll die in this place and your memory erased / Oh say, does this truth hold any weight / This is not the land of the free, but the home of the slaves!"

Scott has previously said in an interview with Jemele Hill that she has considered leaving America due to the racial climate, and would look forward to a better education system. 

"There are some things you don't have to deal with in other countries. We're looking at Holland… The education is dope, the healthcare is dope. There's very few confines on your personality. If you want to go get some a-- or buy some a-- ain't nobody tripping on you… I like the idea of people being able to be free as long as you're not harming anybody."
