Race

RACE

Bolt is not who I am
I run but I will not ran
What am I writing about
I am race
And I run this race
I'm in this space
Running to this place
I belong to this human race

I run this race

Bolt even though he's won
One, running this race
Can see the veins in his face
Lightening fast eyes collapses
Just a blur a flash to the winner
I'm in this space
Running to this place
I belong to this human race

I run this race

All humans are apart of this
Running to this place
Belongs to this human race
So I run and I stand for different colors
Yet I walk, no run from others 
We run from our self when we're hysteria
Come quick we run from Mother Africa

I am race
And I run this race
I'm in this space
Running to this place
I belong to this human race
I run this, I am this...
RACE
