Oh sorrowful song, As the chords they go—lifting minors And falling majors, flat to the eyes, D minor Of the saddest song:
He sings with a choke of voice Smoke from the lungs, a smokers abyss His pipes are cold, Blackened in the airways of the exhaust Exhausted by the pleasures; only pleasurable at first.
Oh where are the words The words to speak ill of another colour Must of been caught up in the smoke—in the years The years he said them marginalizing without remorse In it's race, sped into discriminating; on his own tracks Of how the world must only revolve around him His wife had shed a tear in her prayers, "Lord do a working in him"
But his heart was made cold and hard A stone—paved by cement of his opinions concrete His racist abuse was made public, non discreet So how would he fit a colour of world being discrete?
Oh the upbringing, hierarchy forced in eyes To follow a father's pride—a fitting bride He was unaware she wasn't hundred percent white And in the end, both father and son died alike Ironically chocked by the black smoke rewarding cancer inside
The sad life of the black smoke racist🚬
The son hopes not to follow his father's line of smoke.
