You ask want I am, as if i'm different from you..
differing views skew truth based on who you listening to..
you'll find Hardship commonplace for your race and mine..
Or you'll stay rolling your eyes to better visualize your mind..
and thats fine...
I don't ask for much I find my solitaire sufficient ..
reminiscent on the days seeming to pass us in an instant..
racism... I don't get it .. I mean I've been a witness ..
but to enact that type of judgement .. to me .. seems wit less..
Or Pointless.. though poignant our learned predispositons..
We all scream rash thoughts .. but really... who listens?..
I've felted outcasted outclassed and just straight out of place..
When the cops release my cuffs .. but lock my boys behind gates..
When their washing my dishes.. but we eat from the same plates..
when i'm dying every day but they die at alarming rates ..
If I could choose I would stand where I stood from the start..
cuz color has no bearing.. it all comes down to heart..
the kids dying in the street you don't see it on CNN
But when you managing the store.. you seem to notice em come in..
Stereo atypical if you learned anything about em..
instead we build glass ceilings and projects to reroute em..
to places we don't go won't go for fear ...
of the outcome of one of them ever getting to here ..
where we are ..
I can't stand it ..
