The heroic villain

We are the villains in a story they spun We get the villain arc without being a villain The storyline of a traumatic childhood Living under a shadow Constantly being misunderstood Having to sacrifice ourselves for the greater good Without being given credit of saving the world What they don't tell you is how the hero is the coward How the real villain was the 'hero' who lied about the villains worth How they are the scum of the earth How they are the devil's curse How no matter how hard they try they will always be seen by the hero's words Plot twist This happens in the real world This is a story well known Where the villains were always good And the heroes were egotistical jerks Through their spiteful words Masked by an image of fraudulent perfection The 'villains' were the innocent black people The 'heroes' were the vindictive oppressors Who dictated the world through their racism Their empire built of hatred Their status crafted through their strategic lies The propaganda of their campaign for superiority Is everywhere can't you see Stop being blinded by your ignorance and open up your eyes
