Discriminized


Wrapped in a warm blanket and given to the world

Scorned and rejected for being different in complexion

Buffled with questions of why the celestials cursed me

Reaching up to the heavens to get the answer but unable to

The law tried to support me but the minds refuse to change

Chained to this foolish concept of inferiority

Afraid to speak up so forever being the victim of cruelty

 

Why pretend like we dont see the violence, abuse and discrimination

Lets unite as a race and fight against all this injustice

No one will fight for you if you dont do it for yourself

The world is only dark because we refuse to turn the lights on

Every voice has the ability to enspire change so scream out

Let the heavens be shattered by your cries and rain down change
