God of the oppressors

I dont believe in God 
Why would I?
No literally 
Why? Would? I?

I dont believe 
In this so called all loving being 
That doesn't treat everyone equally 
Because when has he ever helped black people 
We never received equal treatment 
At any point in history 
He is all powerful but couldn't stop slavery
Or wouldn't 
We are all created in his 'perfect image'
And that we all deserve equal treatment 
I guess if he was real
And allowed slavery
He is ing evil 
Because as history wrote
That the prayers he answered 
We're that of the oppressors 
And the oppressed we just had to suffer 
But yeah he's all loving

I mean if I had the powers
That he did
They wouldn't be hidden
And I'd use them to stop racism
I mean he created everything 
But he couldn't stop slavery 
That sounds like an excuse 
Or proof that he hates us

Black people need to wake up
And realise nobody is coming to save us
Not even 
Your all powerful 
All loving
All seeing god
Because if he was going to stop racism 
He would've already saved us
He wouldn't have betrayed our ancestors
