Lessons To Learn

People on the news saying this violence intense, but I understand the message that you’re trying to dispense, you say you’re scared to be black, but race ain’t your choice, you’ve got people in the streets, trying to stand for your voice, you need to be heard, this is absurd, just know I’m here & I’m hearing your words, we need to go back to school & learn that crayons are all in the same box, different colors closely united as one, instead of the color they use to outline in chalk, I say we’re all people, some call me color blind, let this be the number one lesson that I’m about to assign.
