Epigraph:
"Tire marks, tire marks
finish lines, tire marks
when the relay starts
I'm a runaway slave"

My skin was brown , I got on the ground .
I complied but you shoot two rounds .
My name was Michael Brown .

One day your alive the next day your dead
without saying no goodbyes or goodmorning

You want to fight with me?
Come on at me,
bring on that tear gas,
rip on out of that armor

When will the violence endSeems like everyone is with it like it’sa trend,

Is it because I'm black,
That my face is denied,
my life is called crime,

How are we suppose to speak out for what's right
When it seems as if to peacefully protest is denied
