I hope you guys are having a great day
Scratch that, I mean its a bad day
Because nobody should be feeling okay
With what's happening in the USA.
Most think it's reached its peak
But if I'm the one to speak
I'd say it's been 5200 weeks
And that's what makes me sick.
A man was offed by the Police
I mean... what exactly is this?
I may not be a specialist
But he didn't use his fists
No one could help so death he kissed.
Momma! He cried
His hands were tied
I Cant breathe he cried
3 officers... on him, were piled
My back! He cried
My neck! He cried
To no avail, knee on neck he died.
George Floyd
At the hand of the law,
Was killed on American Soil
Making all of our hearts coil.
Home of the Brave
This is the road you pave
Allowing cowards to be saved
Protected from crimes
After taking the lives God gave.
Land of the Free
At least with slavery we were quick to see
How we were valued no more than a tree
Centuries later we can agree
We're bound by invisible shackles made by thee.
The looting and protesting
A result of unjustified killings
As the world awaits a rightful sentencing.
I have a message for you
You: the silent ones,
You: the guilty ones,
Especially YOU: the racist ones...
IT'S BEEN LONG OVERDUE!
