A White Supremacy

Since my skin isn't light enough my life does not matter but to believe that I can be nothing Is to say that faith has no fate For as long as I am the holder of my destiny Oppression shall not be part of my manifestation Yet you kick me when when I can't pick myself up And still I reach beyond the suppressed As in this time White does not rule supreme The simple fact that I'm a Colored girl is not the problem That mirror I stare in is what triess to control me It tells me I'm worthless when I'm worthy And tries so hard to shatter me But still I stare into it hoping that answers arise And as i realize that my mirrors image won't change I take a stand against myself and look towards another day
