The sins of my brothers and my sisters they be here no more When my blood rises from the dead Ebonics will overcome phonics And our lives will be spared
I am done playing politics done being your diplomat if you want the olive branch go get it yourself
I am done acquiescing to your decisions and demands I am prepared to throw up my hands All I want is to be left alone with my kin All I want is for my diction to not define who I am All I want is for peace not to be left a dream
We as a whole are taught that dreams can become reality That america is a country created and shaped by our thoughts Yet our reality is becoming nothing more than a nightmare Someone tell me who thought of this? How can we turn our reality from the nightmare it has become into our dreams let us be honest it was never a place for my people But since we are here can we not claw each others throats out and get back to the problem at hand?
