YesWhen they say not everything is about race
I say yes it is
You may not have experienced it
But I did
Your privilege is showing
Your ego suffocating
Your ignorance provoking
Your stupidity frustrating
Don't insult my intelligence
Racism is still prevalent
It's foundation American
I don't care if my voice makes me a villain
I will always speak up...

Superstition by ChanceAs I run away from the chains, not a single one of my principles drifted
out of my mind, I know what's right and what's wrong for me
I can take actions by chance and leaps of faith
I escaped from the herd, I do not take revenge but I choose to stay calm
Resentment is control,...

WHAT I WISH MY FATHER TOLD ME
My father leave me since child,
I was about seven years old,
Nothing I remember which he told,
Than mother ice cream to sold.
My father have not yet died,
But he has kept me aside,
Phoning him a lot I have tried,
My calls ended without being applied.
Sometimes I fill myself bad,
Like I am not his blood,
How he has keep himself...

Things Happen
Things are always happening
Sometimes, very few things
Other times, everything breaks loose
It is those times when you do what you have to
It may not always be the right thing to do
It may make everything worse than before
Then again, maybe it won't
It's impossible to tell until you do it
So, have a beer or two or maybe...

White Man
Everywhere the white man put his foot
unerringly on unwary locals he stepped
'til they became downtrodden
unable their customs to accept
physically mentally financially
from top to toe stern to stem
to his own advantage
he used abused and exploited them
no matter their culture
what floats their boat but gets my goat
Government-approved
he pushed religion down their throat
lies were spoken treaties broken
but we...

Stand Your Ground, Don’t Get Pushed AroundIf a cop stops you and says, "Show me your ID,"
Know your rights before you agree.
They can’t demand it just on suspicion,
There must be a crime, a law must be broken.
No crime? No reason? Then stand your ground,
Don't allow yourself to get pushed around.
If they threaten you with arrest, if you don’t...

RIGHTSWhy are you attacking me
Just because I am woman
Who are you, to make
Decisions for me
It's my rights and my body
You shouldn't have that right
To make any decisions for me
Even if I'm childless it's my rights...

Limited Freedom Of ExpressionFreedom is somewhat limited
In a so-called democratic society
At times, people cannot truly tell it like it is
People cannot vote freely
Without some restrictions or some stupidities
In order to weaken the disadvantaged
Even though the US first amendment guarantees
Freedom of speech, freedom of expression
To assemble peacefully, freedom of religion
Freedom is not what it is
It is not how it...

Freedom To SpeakWhen you're afraid to speak, you sell your rights for nothing
You sell your conscience, your soul and country for nothing
When you're afraid to express yourself, you don't subsist
You're no longer alive, you're dead, and you no longer exist.
Writers, poets, professors, professionals, teachers and students
Be not afraid to say something, to tell the truth, to tell...

Racial Preferential TreatmentGod laughs when fools behave like racists
All persecuted individuals are His children
God laughs when a few are obviously chosen
And receive preferential treatment under the basis
That the lighter complexion is superior and better.
God created one race. The same blood flows like a river
In all God’s children veins. This blood is red, not amber
God laughs when a...

Ignorance, Shoddy Goods and Poor ServiceNever accept shoddy goods or poor service, you have consumer rights, if they don't address your concerns, contact their chairman.

Always speak when spoken to and be courteous as can be
So, it riles me when folks are ignorant and couldn't give a...

Thus Spoke ZarathustraTravel is not a right
But a privilege, thus spoke Zarathustra
In his most late incarnation
Travelling is tied with applying
But it’s more than ridiculous to ask for privileges.
Especially since the answer is known.
Zarathustra's commodity is hate
I'm not tempted to support his drama
Let those who agree to pay
Have the privilege.
Though, according to Zarathustra's logic
The right to...
