Protection But Provocation
Protection but provocation
Is unfair this attitude
This provocative protection
I wonder if is written on the forehead
That dark skin colours
Could steal you any time
You come across them
Is unfair this attitude
Hiding your wallet
Holding your pockets
Shifting afar
Just because you saw a dark person
Close to you
Wonder if is written thief
On our forehead
As same I wonder
Who thought you so
Is unfair this attitude
I see out of Africa
In the street bus trams
Shopping morns
This attitude is so not normal
What make dark people
Thieves
Must every dark soul you
Come across steal from you
How is it possible this acts
Of yours
So provocative
Is unfair this attitude
Anyone can steal anyone
And kindness is better
Than perceive instants judgement
Protect yourself yes
But when necessary
From an experience
I pen this write
Just to let know is so
Unfair this attitude of
Protection but provocation
