LET'S GET REAL There are no more jokes to life. WE are FALLING as a RACE and we should be ASHAMED in ourselves Violence is erupting in our streets Innocent people are dying Yet instead of mourning over the lost we are being ignorant The foolishness needs to stop! All we are doing is PROVING THE WHITE MAN RIGHT Proving that we cannot be civilized, that we belong in shackles being whooped in cotton fields Our ancestors would not be proud if they saw what we are doing today In fact they would turn their heads and bow them in disgust Thinking to themselves all that hard work for nothing Is that really  what we want...history to repeat itself all over again For us the black race to be treated like animals To be treated as if we are inferior to dirt the other races step on If that is what you really seek then continue But if not... Stop the meaningless violence

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT SIR POET STYLE
LET'S GET REAL There are no more jokes to life. WE are FALLING as a RACE and we should be ASHAMED in ourselves Violence is erupting in our streets Innocent people are dying Yet instead of mourning over the lost we are being ignorant The foolishness needs to stop! All we are doing is PROVING THE WHITE MAN RIGHT Proving that we cannot be civilized, that we belong in shackles being whooped in cotton fields Our ancestors would not be proud if they saw what we are doing today In fact they would turn their heads and bow them in disgust Thinking to themselves all that hard work for nothing Is that really  what we want...history to repeat itself all over again For us the black race to be treated like animals To be treated as if we are inferior to dirt the other races step on If that is what you really seek then continue But if not... Stop the meaningless violence
Public announcement idea borrowed from Frank Ruland. Ladies and Gentleman don't forget to read his work.
