There's so much that I want to say So much popping up in my feed and head today But the fact is all that comes out now is I'm so tired of this
You can't have an opinion unless you're white You can't have an opinion unless you're black You can't have, you can't think, you can't do You're racist, you're not a Christian, you're not Jack
For You see, I'm tired not for myself But of all the negativity
I'm so tired of a culture that's bleeding And we think tapping a keyboard is Bringing about so much change But it's not, it's leaving us needing
Needing change that isn't coming Cause of us it's faltering A constant uphill battle we've created But to that end we keep running
We used to go out and help a man in desperate need We used to give out to the hungry without filming it for our feed
We used to never know what happened on the other side of the globe But now if we don't then we must be ignorant with a broken frontal lobe
We're called to address so many issues But we don't take care of the ones that are Right in front of us in our daily lives You know the ones that you keep hid deep inside
We call out our fellow man and say I'm better But the plank in our eyes keeps us from seeing that we have our own fetter.
I'm tired and worn Maybe you are too But what do we accomplish By speaking what isn't true
I want to hear positivity I want to know i made a difference I met the need of someone And created a smile where there was none
A lot have been struggling this year No job, no money, stuck inside with fear
How about we ignore the social media And focus on the neighbors that live next door How about we focus on our communities first before we tackle more
How about we turn off the news Go outside and make some instead
