..And shit like that gets to me sometimes
But then I remember all "those times"
That time that girl in my class said
reverse racism was real
That time that teacher from third-period
said a girl deserved to be dragged
and manhandled out of her chair for texting
and of course that time a kid almost got beat up,
just because he was assumed to be gay
I remember all "those times"
and when I remember all "those times"
I try to block them out my brain
I put a roadblock down
but somehow all of "those times"
came crashing right through
people often ask why I think racism is so real
and why I think the black lives matter movement is so important,
When I myself am not even black
People always ask me why I constantly post about LGBT youth
and make "being gay"
all my school topics
people always ask me why I think equality
is so important
and I always reply
"why don't you"?
