Blind Blinking


Man of color

Man of hate

Man that's beaten

Man that's brave

World for man

Man in grave

Man to die

Man to save


 

Hardships bared

Pain ignored

When he's broken

On the floor

taught he's different

outside to core

Chains scripted in his mind

Born by death

Blinking blind

He's a bullet from the start

Pull the trigger

That's his shot

He's the villain and the cop

Blinking blind so they can see

Blinking blind society

 

Man of color

Man of hate

Man that's beaten

Man that's brave

World for man

Man in grave

Man to die

Man to save
