Drag my name through the mud. Make fun of me cause of my belief in God. Discriminate and profile me; make excuses saying don’t blame you it’s just your job. Just because I wear a hoodie doesn’t mean I’m going to rob! It’s alright though I’m used to it!
Mock my culture, mispronounce my name; keep me silent, keep me chained! Hate me for my political views, get angered over facts and call for me to be hanged! Overgeneralize my identity like I’m the one to blame. Call me cynical because I believe society is a rigged game! It’s alright though I’m used to it!
Call me *****, call me ***, make fun of my long hair; call me a **** for having braids! Call me savage, call me ******, belittle me to make yourself feel bigger. It’s alright though, I’m used to it?
That’s the real question, should I? Should I be alright with it? Should I simply get over it? Should I just man up and continue to push it down? I am not your entertainment, I am not your clown. I am a human that just so happens to be brown. I will idle no more!
