I am "One o I am "One of the good ones" I keep my nose clean I study in school I stay away from the "Others" I am "One of the good ones" I go to bed on time I go to my job I am not "One of the ones on welfare" I am "One of the good ones" I watch sports I was born in America I don't go near any of the "Thugs" I am "One of the good ones" I only speak English I never listen to "Ghetto music" I try not to offend anyone who is white I am "One of the good ones" At least that is what I try to be

"One of the good ones"
I am "One o I am "One of the good ones" I keep my nose clean I study in school I stay away from the "Others" I am "One of the good ones" I go to bed on time I go to my job I am not "One of the ones on welfare" I am "One of the good ones" I watch sports I was born in America I don't go near any of the "Thugs" I am "One of the good ones" I only speak English I never listen to "Ghetto music" I try not to offend anyone who is white I am "One of the good ones" At least that is what I try to be
A short poem written about my perspective on how it feels to try to fit in with a subliminally raciest America
