The Hatred of Skin

Deaths amongst us, emotions brutalize-n-baptize, in excited fires, the world’s 

infected from the tongues of liars, peace deprived us, eternal open eyelids it’s 

obvious, it’s the color of my skin, your women love us, so you hate our men, 

insecure racism is your hatred’s twin, pitiful, what happen 2 the African slaves, the 

Jews-n-the Indians, unforgettable, hatred at its pinnacle, this summit of a zenith, 

is identical, this diseased mind frame is plentiful, concise-n-literal, analytical-n-

political, life in America is difficult, the reason being , the color of a human being, 

deaths amongst us, you hear the demon breathing, poisonous brains still leaking, 

punctured-n-ruptured hearts still beating, pores open, venom secreting, vengeful, 

lethal, deaths amongst us, combustion lungs puncture, what a heathen, just listen, 

just listen, you hear the demon breathing, breathing on the color of my skin, 

deaths amongst us, let’s pray Amen.

Allah created all of us 
-n-all colors, we all brothers
We all lovers, let’s stop this
Sin/the Hatred of Skin

70% of the population
Wrongfully running the nation
While we the 14%, deal with 
Stereotypical racism, while 
We survive under investigation
Face it; this is what we’re faced with
