Black male


Hello there

want to get to know me

dont act like u dont care

im the same as u, ya see

 

Don't beat me down

what I do to u 

is it cause I'm brown

i apply u ain't care me or u

 

it makes u look bad 

it makes me stand tall 

when we look at u its sad

we're just like yall

 

but imma stand up stronger

with my feet beneath

and I will live longer

with my future and success in reach
