Snakes with two lines
Influence rhymes
To be made with drug signs
But who cares black man
Get them dimes
At the expense of our kind
Sellout sellout sellout
Got our fabric cloned for their form
Then call it a new uniform
Despite the source not cited
They never get indicted
Sellout sellout sellout
Hit that ticket catch a flick
Witness the robbery of our slapstick
Our style our jokes our swagger
It resonates when they imitate
Sellout sellout sellout
I don’t blame the man
Or the white hand
Or the illuminati band
Ultimately it’s our folks
That spends the cash
So we always crash
My table never empty
The clothes stayed fresh
You always provided plenty
And yet your hand met her flesh
I learned my love of contact from you
The passion with pigskin
My childhood was in your queue
But you never put the work in
My higher learning is your credit
My IQ is a gift
I only wish I could edit
How quick ***** made you shift
I grew big and strong
Which mirrors your design
I feel like a pig with a ****
A ending to your punchline
You fooled me for years
Reflected a false light
The man who appears
To be my biggest copyright
I was rewarded with you
A beautiful flower
Pedals that never meddled
Just grew and viewed
Despite my attitude being rude
You were there when I became president
Watch me sworn in
Only to leave you while I win
You shrink a little but didn’t die
If I said I knew your loyalty
That be a lie
because when I was mr Knight
You stood by my side
When I was trying to get rides
To late night water slides
Your glowed dimmed
But I just press sim
Time seemed to bolt past me
Despite what you saying
I never thought it turn crappie
My friends disappeared
Like a thanos snap
No gauntlet could fix that mishap
My flower begging for my love
I so happily declined
Because the world around me
Kept me quiet like a mime
So her pedals began to fall
Since outside my life was her wall
I had all the likes
Which turned into tikes
Then a social feed
That ended with me under a ****
I had no where to go
Except low
as I sunk
Into my life’s final form
Which was a beautiful tragedy
But I guess call it gravity
Because you stayed down with me
Even though I rarely gave you water
Or sunlight
Hell I even let your soil turn white
No matter what
You knew I was right for you
So when the wind blew away
My dream
Your reality of us being together
Made life once again serene
By sight you see a black man
One of the most feared
And revered
I send images of a criminal
When I stand still
So the world strikes me at will
People see me and immediately think
Athlete for sure or maybe a ****
Hell even somebody plug
But open the black door
To see a Latino standing inside of me
See my name invoked confusion
Because my look with my surname
Doesn’t equal the conclusion
How I can be so black
And salsa all the same?
As if being Spanish
Was a light skin thing
When many Spanish have African
In their brain
I guess we never associated race
With chemistry
Because you can be one race
With a different color
No one has just one mother
So why can’t we be brothers
O because my title
has to match your ideal
So I should shrink grow a hat
And then revert my skin back
Before it turn black
To save time
I will change my name
To something more black
like Tyson or Mayweather
That way you feel better
I’m a mime and clown in one
Because people laugh at me
And look stunned
Whenever my mouth begins to run
Some people would call you a ballon
That’s just more room for me to swoon
Your round and that’s bad
The world see pounds so sad
Because your flawless in your walk
But they stay with salt
Quick to shame you for your choice
Like we need their voice
Whether thick chubby curvy or fat
All that means to me
Is where I’m going to pick you up at?
They can keep there
Loose leaf paper chick
Her attitude make me sick
Who is nothing but hair and eyes
Always focused who shares and why?
I can’t lie
At times they get my attention
But if you jiggle then you get a extension
My ladies who are bad with good weight
Can always have a date
Because your body is my meal
And I always eat two plates
You separate us more than a line
You created more divide than time
Once I wear your I’m labeled
No matter what I do
They always look at you
I wear you as status
Too show my wealth
Even though you **** my health
If I don’t buy you then I’m not myself
Because everyone else like me has you
How dare I be something else
I’m stuck up if I turn my nose to you
Or called lame
All because my jump man
Doesn’t have a number or name
Some would call you a staple
Hell even a right of passage
But all I see blood and havoc
Yet they all walk past it
All for there feet
While many died before it came overseas
I hate you and I pray you go away
But it will never happen
Because we will **** anybody
For bread we can’t eat any day

I want to say thanks
To my bullies in the third grade
You shoved me into urinals
Punched and pushed
Even called me the nword
I hope you never get flipped a bird
To my middle school I thank you
Your closed minded views
And repugnant use of my name
You kept me down and broken
I hope you stay so outspoken
To my high school class thank you
You turned cold and distant
Even isolated and shamed me
My ex even made a meme of me
For a project in class
I hope that helped her pass
To college thank you
First I broke my arm then
My friend had *** with my girl
And I was homeless
I hope your parties aren’t foamless
To my old friends thank you
For leaving me out from a trip
Never hearing my pain
And always pointing at me to blame
I hope no girls call y’all lame
Lastly thank you me
For being weak so I could grow strong
For being scared so I could find bravery
For being lost so I could build a home
Thank you to you all because now
I never feel alone
