The Color of the Eye
Location
Don't judge me if you don't me:
They judge my skin
They don't care what is within
They judge me because i do things differtly
I want to speak in unity
I'm trying to speak freely
It like i'm not making a sound
A peep
A weep
it like I am not talking at all
or I was never found
When i was a little girl
I always thought the world was a fairy tale
But then I got hit with reality
That every one doesn't see me for me
That peopel with my skin
Don't get treated fairly
The urge
The rage
On how people play this game
How I get treated
Even when people don't know
How people make me feel
Unwanted
Outta Place
Do you not understand the freedom
That I hold in my hand
Do they judge me because:
I'm not like them
Do they judge me because
I have just as much skills as they do
The crime, and the justice Towards myy kind is unfair
You barley see things that are good in The hood
But there people like me That are good
But you will never see this on Tv
The truth must be told
People May not have what I have to say.
The truth has to come out in some way.
Martin Luther King wanted unity.
What are we giving back to our ancestors
As our ancestors fought for our freedom
They fought through the struggle
For we have the power to take a stand
For this is not a joke, nor a game
but this happens in our lives everyday
Don't judge me if you don't know me
because someday I'll make history
but right now i'm telling a story
They judge me because of my skin
They don't care what within
I'm supposed to be a free African American girl
But why do we still feel like were tied down, and oppressed
How will our future be told?
will our chains be broken?
