Darken White Creed

DARKEN WHITE CREED
Its hiding behind fake smile
Deep down not less than a mile
River of joy and sadness
Flows from the same source
Salt and fresh water
Meet at same point, later

Black and white classified
Human magnified
Can’t intertwine
Same air we dine
The race is partial
In her peak of metal

The rock’s not stable
Fair judgment isn’t edible
Our loud voice inaudible 
With what meat do we feed posterity
If we don’t take responsibility
To wage this hostility

Fish and prawn delicious
Different nutrition’s
Sea food they (both) are

The darken voice should be heard abit
By he that appear to be light
Under same roof we were born
Into same earth, we shall (all) return

This color black, us.
It couldn’t be a curse
The almighty has it cause.

I believe Black people were the first people, so I would imagine God holds them in high favor. It seems that some with paler complexion also possess a paler spirit.
