Angry =/= Crazy
Lets talk crazy.
The idea that,
Wanting equal rights and
Fighting for justice
Makes me insane
Drives me nuts
That you are backwards
And broken to percieve me
As somehow incomplete
And while I rattle on
Know that, being angry
That I watch people
That look like me
On the news getting killed
Is an appropriate response
Know that, being angry
That people who aren't like me
Get harassed, beat, ***** or killed
Is an appropriate reaponse
Think I'm outrageous or wild
Or something in between
But you want to talk crazy
Then I'm talking about you
