i used to know people

in my converse

shoved in the corner

stuffed in the shadow 

trying to rise 

some helped others refused 

said we couldn't do things 

gave us a little light then laughed in our faces

gave us minimal wage said we wouldn't amount to anything

then we rose up 

defied gravity 

we could've spat in their faces but no we gave them a new chance

 but they will never no the suffering and pain we went through

they will never understand the blood and tears 

we will go through that all again and they will stay the same and will repeat the same mistakes while we will rise against it just like we did before
