Who Am I
Who am I if am not me,? Judged by my skin.
Am from a hot place with no Amity.
Found myself in a cage of wild animals,
Where am from, folks are taken by hunger,
Questioning why is it to hard for me to breath?
Being they think am, gave them wealth.
Who am I if am not that person know by crime?
At the streets am free,
In my mind am a slave,
Who'll brake this chains,
Lost dignity to cruelty.
Am in jungle, permitted to be a monkey,
Being a lion not fit for my kind.
Who am I, if am not that loyal to be cruel friend?
I am not a Gorilla as they label,
Am bruesed and not given medicine.
If am a British animal,
Why am I weak among ants?
Developed hate, lost love over night.
Who am I with so much shame in my eyes.
