Dark skin talk:
Different mothers,
But we're still brothers
Fighting the good fight,
Trying to stand up together.
Light skin walk:
Legacy legitimized
Guilt from a system
That serves even in
Innocence individualized.
Black and white:
Shades amplified
Beyond real life to
Extremes exemplified
divisive in entirety.
Human skin balk:
We're brothers one and all.
Rise above skin tone shock;
Stand up for each other -
We're all that we've got.
