Black Lives Matter
Black lives matter,
said my mother and father,
before I was made an orphan.
And all my life they caused me harm,
all because their colour was different from mine.

He said he couldn't breath,
no one listened.
Even though he was begging,
his life was forcefully taken from him.
They didn't care if he was actually guilty.
How can we live when we know we're not free?
and for us, justice doesn't exist.
We just want to live,
and be happy.
WE WANT JUSTICE!
