Freedom
Different by color
But the same inside
Always kept separated
Making my rebellion
To those who say they own me
Because I am not property
Everyday is a fight
Working for no money
Night and day
Family torn apart
Whipping for trying to run
One day I will be free
Invisible and forgotten
By those who are above us
Nothing but a waste of their money when we're free
Those who treat us as equal
Are the ones who freed us from this terrible life
Are our saviors forever
Some of us will never find our family
We will adopt the children torn from their families
We are free without knowing our rights
So are we truly free
I wrote this when we were learning about African American history
