Just because i am black

Black written bold on my forehead like a tattoo Agun pointed by the side of my head Just because i am black I am black so my punishment is that i must stand up for other race to sit down like they are the ruler just because i am black WOW! We surround ourself with our own kind We work as a slave to other race well anyways that is the olden times Just to earn money for our children but we don't complain do we? Sometimes i think that our identities are nothing to other race
