Talk It Out
Why are we to be content with our role in this country?
We gave you what you asked for.
When will our government hear our plea?
That's over my head, he who has all the control is through that door.
Let me start off with the fact that we were BROUGHT here.
So wouldn’t you WANT to go back?
What would you be when we leave? You’d collapse when we hit the pier.
No...we are superior, everything you lack.
Our history MAKES your country..that we don’t even claim.
And that's good for you.
So how is it that when anything goes wrong..WE are to blame?
Don’t get me started on people like you.
No.. we don’t understand how the country’s despair is on us...EXPLAIN!
Police brutality, slander, assumption, injustice, racial casting.. IT’S PAIN!
Well we can’t cha-
UNDERSTAND WE ARE HURT AND NOT INSANE!
We don’t want to shoot you.
We don’t want to hurt you.
We don’t want to offend you.
We honestly aren’t even looking for approval from you.
I can tell you what we want though.
We want our voice heard by ALL
We want to not be profiled in the hall
We want to not be seen as thieves in the mall
We want answers when we call
Let the voice of my people be channeled, delivered, understood, and spread by all
In hopes of equality for all
Let life be just for all
Let us pray for all
