Black life matters


Nothing but the truth Has become as rare As hens tooth A brother don't care Even if he shoot Another to wound This is the sad truth Of the society we live If black life matters Then why this sadness We are black's But not duck's Peace, love and harmony Was instilled in our destiny So let love lead And not forget our root I'm an African And not American
