Little boy walking only 17 by chance.
Running away wanting to getaway.
Mad men advertising stuff you don't need but only dream you can own.
Ignorant beyond belief.
Billboards calling my name it's like I've gone insane.

Shot down sistemic racism is on the prowl.
You know you they don't want me around.
White privilege laws are made so you can be saved.
Segreation was my history.
What is yours ;you were the master I was the slave.
Don't tell me you want to be saved.
Education is  presented where my history is Earsed  , only brought up once a month on black history month.
Is that enough!
John Lennon said "power to the people " so why are we not equal.

Entertain as you please; where we have  nothing to earn , just a mere existence we are thrown.
You may worry without a care watch TV like no one else is there.
Barriced in bars where freedom is the word yet it is unheard.

Beautiful without a name  being black I'm proud of who I am.
Everything is coming to ahead I know someone is wanting me dead.
Where is love ?
Guns pointed like I'm a target of a crime which wasn't mine.
Just being alive is the fear you preside.
