I was thrown out for being black,

People spoke of me behind my back,

I was made to feel ashamed,

For the colour I did not choose, I was blamed.


I was fed like a dog,

Given left out food , ridiculed, and mocked,

Only because I'm black, everyone hates me,

O! God, from this hell, please set me free.


Let me ask you, do you do the same while wearing a black robe?

Do you do the same while getting EDUCATED from a BLACK board?

They don't have a life , yet not prejudiced,

I have a life yet always criticised.
