That Dirty Little N Word

That dirty lil "N" word,
Oh how I hate it so, plagued with such
Destruction, in ways we will never know
           That dirty lil "N" word,
Echos in the wind, teenagers using. It 
Randomly, joking with there friends
            That dirty lil "N" word,
It discredits "who we are" the values, love,
And beauty, beyound our skin colour thus far.
             That dirty lil "N" word,
Used in hip hop songs, continuing its ignorance
For a next generation, to carry on.
              That dirty lil "N" word,
Embarrsed by its content, breeds so much hatred,
From the mental turmoil, it despence.  
               That dirty lil "N" word
Little did I say!! How could a word so lil, impact
Others in such a big way. 
                That dirty lil " N" word. 
Take it as you may, unfortunetly in this culture,
                It is here to stay!!!
