Black Faces

I can't be part of the conversation Cause I always go mute Every time they bring up the conversation For why would I speak to them yet they call me a brute They've already labelled the world black and white And the white pieces always have the first move So why would I use my only moves to only write Myself more hate cause I'm afraid of making a wrong move I hence chose to be deep in the silence The silence of the injustices on us Choosing to fight for sheer existence Cause I can only count for change from us That's why I'd chose everyday to be with people like me Around the love that doesn't change with phases That everywhere I look its people who are like me With smiles the only things brightening our faces The PO£T
