Unheard
Casted to the side
When I talk about racism
Two of you are down to hear
But the rest don’t know or care
Gotta laugh off the jokes
About my skin and my People
That crap is humiliating
So why am I endorsing it
If I told you all to stop with it
What Would you say? Would it be
“You’re not the Jeff I know”
Ye, cause that guy was acting
And he was terrible at it
If I got way too real for a sec
Would you put me down
Like Martin, X, and Hampton
I should be putting my best
Into something that matters
And not be entertainment.
Just don’t know how to leave it
