racism
racial profiling
racial tension
racial hatred
hate is like a hot knife that cuts through
a slice of orange doing nothing
but divide up in sections
of shades, accents, languages, dialects, and features
i should neither love or hate
congratulate or discriminate
those to hate the other race
solely basing on one that is unworthy of a thought
this cycle of slavery and barbaric behavior continues to spin that is still being taught
in reality, there is no such thing as race
race is society's perception based on standards
that resonates the illusions of dehumanization of human life
yet, people are still influence with stupidity that clouds one's ability
to accept the fact that we all bleed red
at least they think about war and peace
how to survive the streets
how they're going to eat
if one's house have heat
you are so far away from one thoughts
they can barely think of you
but as people epitomize this idiotic ideology of the caste system you call race
as race walks
past you glare
and you gasp and desperately grasp for your bag
so now
you are forced into this half life state
blinded by your hatred
so therefore, you don't see the person
because all you see is race
racism
racial profiling
racial tension
racial hatred
hate is like having a new pair of lebrons that came out in white
you like it because its a certain color
but when the same edition comes out with a different color
in your eyes, its a threat because it will sell more
sooner or later, the lebrons in white you own will soon be forgotten
