Gift and Curse
A gift and a curse, I asked for a rebirth. I was born with pigmentation, I breathe the same air and put my pants on just like you. I was told that retribution and restitution will not be tolerated. I was born poor, my shadow casts a doubt. My shadow was scared of my flesh. I tried to hide in my spirit but my flesh tested the 1%’s patience. I tried to organize protest and marches but my actions were left on deaf ears. I called to God but the people continued to steal my joy. The ploy was to eradicate and perpetuate negative stereotypes. The plight of man?
Disdain, do you honor and protect whats left? I almost bled to death. Running from the people, I want to reproduce but I will probably have to have my offspring protected by troops. In Gods name, are we the people left nameless and faceless? Pride and Respect biblical manifest? No slave is better than his master but some of us have prayed for death rather than protest, much neglect will the situation ever manifest?
Contempt for the court. Mans law or Gods law. Swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth? Did he shoot to kill? Was he sworn to protect the law? Who is the real outlaw? Do the masses have a just right to civil liberties? Honor and respect! We helped you build this nation, we gave you gold medals in athletics. We fought and died in wars. What does it take to be treated as an equal? Education can’t save us, we tried to change legislation but Congress did not approve. What [are] the people supposed to do?
Pray and ask God to show the people the way. We tried that for 500 years. We toil the land and try to have economic freedom but the sequel keeps playing and the ending has not changed. We looked in the mirror and looked at our souls. The mirror showed us that we are people and our souls are just? The fuss and commotion about liberties and justice seem to be perplexed, the cause and effect has to correct. We need an alibi, we the people on earth are crying out for a rebirth!!!
