Can Anyone See It ?


Treated wrong as if were nothing Taken in as slaves and held like captives Our women raped, husbands slain Discrimination has occurred --- Can anyone see it ? Why is White always right ? But Black Black is overlooked Never good enough, always seems to be bad Have they ever though that this makes us mad? By they I mean the Whites that treated us wrong and us stands for the strong, goodhearted, Headstrong Blacks. Martin Luther King Jr., Obama, and many other leaders They have shown us that yes... Yes We can So let us stand strong together And fight this war of color.
