May 2020
Enough is Enough
Again! Why and when will it stop
Another life lost due to an entitled and empowered white cop
So many years of profiling and brutality
Others can’t fathom or know a black man’s reality
Daily events we others take for granted
Justice is never served, the playing field is slanted
Rights of all people should be respected
If we sit idly by, we become infected
Infected with inaction and perceived to not care
So stand with our brothers and let’s end the despair
This racism that plagues us has been eradicating “blacks” for years
It’s time to move forward, ending so many families tears
We are one people, human, same blood for sure
MLK Jr had it correct and his word endure
Yet words alone can’t change our lives
We need to stand as one so all can survive
