Even though my bones may crack
"Your pain's not that serious."
Tired trying to prove my humanity
The popo always come running' when they hear Buttercup crying
She get the tissue for faking an abduction
I get the bullet buying candy from the station
I'm exerted from all the nights I stayed alert; having to look out for myself
By myself
Cuz I can't find the help
They tell me, "Suck it up"
"And no one gives a f—k"
You're A Strong Black Woman"
You can figure it out!!"
Though my bones may crack
Though my energy lacks
Til my water runs out
And I'm exploited into the ground.
"Work faster lazy bum."
And it reoccurs at sunrise,
and next the day
The next week
The next month
The next year
The next decade
Alway pondering
When will my humanity be seen?
