Because I'M Black
You know, my name,
you know, what you did.
You think it's a joke,
it's nothing, to then kid.
I just lost my life,
the life, I once had.
You, had to then prove,
as a cop, how your bad.
By dissecting , what I had to say,
all I said, you then used , or ignore.
Then you then used your power,
to force me away, until I'm not no more.
You choose not to remember,
you make believe, I didn't exist.
But eventually, the world will then shout,
because the truth, be known, I didn't resist.
Away with it, you will not,
for all, will see, what was done.
Everything that then is declared,
by what was seen ,will show, you're the one.
The opposite, you will then become,
handcuff with wrists and hands, behind back.
Now you forever be punished, behind bars,
with me known as the one, kill cause, I'm black.
