You'Re Black

This emptiness you insist
Is the nothings that's on a list
The imperfections of a wronged direction
Covenant one;
 
You're BLACK

And you are the reason you are way you're at
Your last straw placed you in the fires of lack
it's because, because. . . . . . .

You're BLACK

And back in t he beginning there was nothing
And noting is darker than black except maybe the purple the color of royalty other. . 
races ignore if it's tied to your neck
Rather throw you overboard or off a horse
Than to give you acknowledgement or voice
The fullness you've accomplished now
Are the reasons why we should all bow
There's better forces in the air this universe was created by HIM
This He came out of the darkness
And He wears the purple for royalty
And He made first the darkness this blackness in all inclusive reality
A convenient one
I am

You're BLACK
