When you say all lives matter I hear black lives don’t;
An oversimplification of a phrase that held meaning
Your statement was never questioned
You just broadened ours until the guilt lessened

No one need apologize for the crimes of others
I know you never held a gun and you love all the same
But ignoring just breeds ignorance so things will never change
All lives may matter but day after day who is the prey?
Turn on the TV, it’s another black name
