Black is light


Gunshots... After taking shots.. at a local bar But today he's sleeping behind bars For a crime not committed So he's convicted False accusations flowing..like lyrics in a poem "Officer I ain't done nothing" Who is to listen to him yet he's different He's colour's different Language..is also different Different!! Different!! But what can he do and he's in an alien country He's different yet was created by the same God Can't fight back..would be odd Could lead him to court Black is beauty.. Black guy magic Stop harassing us..we didn't choose to be black But we still proud of us..ourselves We shouldn't be scared and lock ourselves in shelves Black lives matter too you know...you know We raised this country Now you here making me a bounty Already arranged I die outside the county but even when you try to step on us,we will germinate Coz we look out for US #Black Lives Matter... Stop racism and criticism
