I'm not black, but I see you
I'm not black, but I hear you
I'm not black, but I’m near you
I'm not black, but I stand with you
you are all a blessing
so let’s stop messing
let’s cut the silence
and cut the violence
our organs are the same
the blood types won’t change
but still, this is no fair game
I see too many privilege
depending on your village
we make huge difference
let’s prove your innocence,
cut the ignorance
we are all the same,
only different names
guided by authorities,
but let’s set priorities
of humanity?
I see 0 percent
we need to stand up,
be a movement
we are hating and killing
this is not okay,
this is not fulfilling
your worth is defined by a colour,
it’s worth only some dollars?
what the fuck are they thinking?
these racists are winning
where are human rights?
they only count, if you’re white?
this only causes damage
in different ages,
on different pages
people get hurt
we should be concerned
the future is equal? ha! bullshit
how should today’s children,
be tomorrow’s change,
if we teach them rage
how to hate one another,
not to value your brother,
how to be violent,
how to be silent,
how to watch,
follow the system,
how to be a victim
but now for real,
listen
it affects anybody
in America,
the cops have their hands bloody
A.C.A.B. but not all are bastards
there are some,
with really good standards
we should all be
on the same team,
make love our religion
that would be supreme
why fight each other
when we share a mother?
mother earth wouldn’t like all this hatred,
that we created
I don’t understand,
how can you be so mean?
how can we heal?
is there a vaccine?
I know life can be joyless,
so let’s raise our voices
let’s stay strong,
together,
and be clever
let’s learn how to care,
how to love,
how to share
let’s be a game changer,
cut out the danger
make it safe for everyone
no need to use a gun
less violence, decrease
let’s be good, find peace
we come in different shapes, colours, sizes
now this problem finally arises
we need to find a cure
it’s urgent, I’m sure
bring some clarity,
embrace the difference,
cherish similarity
we are all human
let’s find a solution
create a revolution
more or less melanin?
doesn’t matter,
'cause we all need
the same medicine.
