I.B.L.M (If Black Lives Matter)

 

 

I Hear This Time AND Time Again
When Will THE Killing END
Come Together AND WIN
BUT Rather Keep Living IN SIN

IF Black Lives Matter 

WHY Keep Killing Your
OWN Color
Giving Power TO Hate
and people
SAYING Lets Make America Great
While it eats its young 
Especially our young black men
ITS Starts IN THE Home 
Where Many Parents Cant WIN
NO Respect, Lack OF Faith
While THE World Waits 
FOR OUR Kids TO Fall Deeper IN SIN

IF Black Lives Matter

WHY Keep Putting Down Each Other
ONE Acting More THEN THE Other
Having THE Means TO Help 
BUT 
Rather Talk About ONE Another

IF Black Lives Matter

Stop Talking About ALL THE Troubles
There's no story without struggle
WE ALL Make Mistakes AND may Stumble
ITS Time TO Take A Stand
Raise your hands
Black power!
When will you get Tired OF Burying Another 

If Black lives matter

Then why kids go without a father
Men
BE THE Head not THE Tail
Stop Giving Your Soul TO Hell
Are a life in jail
Already hated 
But we degrade and kill off  our 
OWN COLOR

Women GOD Created YOU TO BE Great 
A man's help mate
But yet many mother's
Left alone to defend her home 
And raising up her own 
Upon GOD, Family, AND Faith

Give Praise TO GOD
This ISN'T Just A Phase
This Life WE Live IN IS A Maze

IF Black Lives Matter

Come together and win
We need our black men
Build a strong foundation
Destroy a cursed generation
Put a end to all the killing 
Bring upon healing
It's time
When Will Someone Finish 
What Martin Luther King Started

IF Black Lives Matter!!!!!
