When I dream of equality...what's that got to be?
Should my business only hire people that look like me?
I should buy a white slave and set them free-In some centuries
Then never trust their kind simply standing next to me
Even though my kind brought them from their land!
I wont lift my feet when they need a hand!
I mean who do they think I am?
The descendant of the people who owned them?
Or that I'm living on stuff they built?
How dare they try and throw this guilt?
I'll never trust them publicly or expect them to be close to me
How tragic they cannot behave civilly- Just like me
They say my money is stained in blood
And I cringe when I hear them sling this mud
I mean I don't get anything for free!
Always screaming take some responsibility
Is it my fault all the owners look just like me?
We all believe in equality so go build your own   economy!
