Powers That Be
To the powers that be. 
I've allowed you to view

I AM A HERO
BLACK
Are you my kryptonite
To battle the powers that be
Discrimination, political 
Spirituals warfare
Sadly my powers that be ruled over me
I AM A HERO 
WHITE Are you my kryptonite
White supremacy, skinned heads
Wounded knees
Shaved cold stoned hearts
Sadly my powers that be ruled over me

Those at ''The Top'' may have a degree
Whatever you think ''The Top'' to be

Groomed and smart  but looking so tense

Face to face
Face the facts
Get your strings off of my back
Controlling me 
Force to see 
Your twisted ways 
I turn away

But no one...

Sometimes in life things are out of our control...
Especially when we feel we've given to the bottom of our soul...
Only to receive nothing in the end...
But I want you to know in me you have a lifetime friend...
