Kaepernick

Did you see all those N___ on their knee
Protesting millionaire players a monopoly 

Those S O B's should be fired he declared
If its wasn't for football they'd be on welfare

This is the mentality of white trash society
Looking for escape goats of disparity

Right to work in poverty
Southern state mentality 

Black men are under assault in plain sight
Gunned down in the dark of night

Modern day plantation owners agree
With the Mad Mans decree

Black balled for taking a knee
Colin Kaepernick  knelt because of  hypocrisy 

Burning flag's or taking a knee
Is what it takes to secure democracy
