I have to state
This topic won’t wait
There’s too much hate
And you can’t debate
The president’s role
God bless his soul
Though it has a hole
And his heart is cold

I must declare
I’ve experienced my share
And so I’m aware
That hatred’s there
I know that it exists
So I must insist
That we resist
Though it’s in our mist

It’s a matter of record
So you can check it
Or try to dissect it
Maybe intellect it
But why should we pretend
Learning how to hate again
Can ever make us great again
And if we ever were then when?

It started with the natives who
Judging by what they went through
Were mistreated as we knew
Like black and brown people too
But do you think that they’d repent
Or take the time to relent
Instead of getting encouragement
From the ******* president
