Blacks

It’s like we’re doing them people a favor Showing them, that we own up to what they say; Stereo types isn’t the way, But we as blacks are proving them right.. They believe that we’ll kill eachother before the Last night, & all our women gone fall a victim to the streets, Weak minded; Not even having our children anything to eat.. The only good thing we got going for ourself Is education, & that aint gone support the whole nation.. Come on nie, We gotta take stand! Teach our children how to believe in Themselves, Show our mothers that they Can make it without a man! Prove to our fathers, That they’ll regret they Neglected us! Tell our brothers the “Freak” that noise, & Stop that fuss! Its like we all against Eachother, But it shouldn’t be this way, We gotta get it together some day; Them people know what they doing… Pretending to solve these crimes, But knowing their using the same line, Only place they wanna see us is the cemetery, Hmm.. Or maybe jail? But if we don’t make there, Best to believe: They hoping we on the High way to hell, But we gotta prove em’ Wrong, Its been too long, Take a stand, Cause black women don’t need any man, Children needa believe in themselves, Fathers should regret the neglect, & our brothers need to stop the fuss, I’m trying not to cuss, But all this frustration just built up Inside, Its kinda hard to hide! Think about it: Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Malcom X.. & More, fault For our freedom; Now we got it, & we abusing it, Kinda like our fathers try our mothers, But that’s a whole other subject, We gotta get it together & that’s a bet(: Inspired by 2Pac Words of Wisdom(:
