Am i too black

For you to kill me.

Am i too black

For you to haunt for me

Am i too black

To be given freedom.

My future is hard to pave.

You put a knee on my neck.

My dreams vanished

The time you whipped my back

and my tears became a past

You overjoyed to cast.

For you to prove a point.

What did i do.

For you to call me names

What did i do.

WHAT DID I DO

For you to hate my kind so much.

The tears of my brother and sister

The pain of being put to death

The pain of being walked above

The screams of our unborn souls

The horror of being slaved inside our beautiful souls

Oh! how i fear for our future kind.

How i pray

For them not to feel oppressed.

The life we are living is possessed.

It’s a crime to be black.

We are disciplined with ropes on our necks.
