Black


Black is just a color
 
so don't make that define who we are
 
we may be different 
 
But...we are the same flesh and bone
 
we bleed the same
 
we're made the same
 
in the hearts of color, we know we are one
 
no more pain is needed
 
we are tired of hiding in the shadows
 
Its time to fight for what we want
 
Equality.....Equality......Equality
 
Listen to the words of everyone
 
one person to speak for a hundred
 
I am human!
 
I am an activist!
 
I am BLACK!
