Black ministers, where you at?
Sitting quietly, in your safe community far from reality.

Only seen on church day with a few words to say.

Violence happening on a daily basis.

Black ministers, why are you quiet?

Shame, to see older fools holding onto stupid youth ways.
Talking about their wickedness back in the day.
And advising the youth of stupidity of their wicked ways.

The black church cries about the days they were the voice.
This mainly became known more during King's days of challenging the protocol.

The written rule everyone was equal but the truth became exposed.
That these words sound good on paper but bases solely on lies.

Megachurches led by wealthy folks afraid to be controversial because of monetary support.
Black ministers, where you at?
We are not seeking a national figure because they get caught up i the press's attention.
