Can you see me?
Skin dark,
Eyes brown,
Blood Red
Anger shown.
I am someone's
Son, nephew, grandchild
Even in a world so cruel
Where violence is everywhere.
Can you see me?
A man with a heart
Not my skin color
Or my class
But see me as a human being.

Can you see me?
Skin dark,
Eyes brown,
Blood Red
Anger shown.
I am someone's
Son, nephew, grandchild
Even in a world so cruel
Where violence is everywhere.
Can you see me?
A man with a heart
Not my skin color
Or my class
But see me as a human being.
