Lincoln, Apartheid, the West
Minority rule Apartheid
We, majority, asked:
How? blaming the victims of hate!
I heard Gandhi, Dr. King, Biko
II
Now we who have media, wealth, vote ...
Ask Lincoln to police Minneapolice (Mean Polis?)
We quote, "Be the change you want," but
Dream dead Saviors, hate Prez Obama, First Black
III
We were asked to solve (apart-hate) - apartheid
We did so, without the vote, money, or hate
We are hard - fair - on you for murderous policing:
Just don't kill unarmed Blacks. You need LINCOLN for that!
