I don’t see black and white.
I don’t understand why people fight,
For a freedom they have already received.
Is it just how they have perceived,
The world around them.
My attitude sometimes astounds them.
‘Black Lives Matter’ yes, they do,
But that already’s been taken care of, for me and you.
I don’t see black and white.
While people put on mental shackles like it’s their birthright.
“I can do this because he’s racist.”
When you really don’t understand just where your place is.
Inside yourself you want to reach for the stars.
But your state of mind keeps you where you are.
I know racism is still apart of our problems,
But stop being negative and figure out how to solve them.

i get high on love and travel with happy pills
how do people know
when if they're absolutely in rotting misery?
i wish it'd be possible for us
to measure the exquisite feelings
of raw emotions
and let us know
when it kicks off
i mean, what i'm trying to say, i suppose,
is i won't stand motionless
as life passes by
nor become a predator of my mind
none of us should
again, do tell me,
how do people say
when they're feeling like
leaves
floating around
the ocean
and nothing else?
