Dna

DNA - you misspelled my destiny
Block after building block
Destroyed with your sour acidity
Tried to redefine my black

DNA – in my human footprint
You left a lasting impression
With this uncertain genotype
Designed my unnatural selection

DNA – you spilled my humanity
Into mud like a blood clot on my skin
I leave my fingerprint like artistry
By redesigning you with my brain

DNA – so you’re the source of life?!
But you are not God, that’s just lies
He’s a not a gene you can map,
But on your juices a virus preys
