A devilish change indeed I've seen the Oppressor's cruel words I looked into their eyes and smile ~~ My granddad most memorable words Look into their eyes and smile my child Never bow your head unless it’s to pray ~~ They might have a running feud with you Not you with them folks fight their own demon within It’s the tainted smell from the blood Of the beast as it washes our dark street And clog our drains with shame and stains Obnoxious things that would never go away In this age of time: because off the vitriolic hatred and bigotry which often lead to hate words and crime ~ Granddad said he drank, talk and laugh with them at the pub and watch as the rats nibble at their faces As they fall into the ditches in society fueding about the black race. However, a rat isn’t going to bite you You unless he feel threaten. so small point keep on smiling

Granddad Wise Words
A devilish change indeed I've seen the Oppressor's cruel words I looked into their eyes and smile ~~ My granddad most memorable words Look into their eyes and smile my child Never bow your head unless it’s to pray ~~ They might have a running feud with you Not you with them folks fight their own demon within It’s the tainted smell from the blood Of the beast as it washes our dark street And clog our drains with shame and stains Obnoxious things that would never go away In this age of time: because off the vitriolic hatred and bigotry which often lead to hate words and crime ~ Granddad said he drank, talk and laugh with them at the pub and watch as the rats nibble at their faces As they fall into the ditches in society fueding about the black race.
