U see me
I see u
They don’t see us
They see color
They see fear
In they mind a boy with his hands in his pockets has a weapon that’s not afraid to be traced
Or a boy with a hoodie just stole from the nearest deli
We’re seen as Violent people or Murderers
When our colorful souls are the ones laid out
On the cold concrete as the innocent blood drips
Showing the true connection that make everyone human
In any situation Where the antagonizers
It’s not like we chose to be black
In any Situation we have to remember to be black first because you gonna hold yourself like a black person will
Loyalty support and love should go to black people first
When u look at me u see black first
Remember we were proclaimed to be savages when they stripped us from our home
Making us view everything in a different perspective
But don’t feel sympathy for us
We evolved from our challenges
No need for apologies now because y’all wasn’t saying it then and u sure as hell ain’t saying it now
Take a moment a pray for the one we lost
RIP (name) husband father and son
What happened to black lives matter was that just a social pun
A trend
Unjustified statement
We battled our demons
Remember black first
Most importantly u first
All lives matter of course but not not until Black Lives Matter 🤎
