Equality is False Where I Live


A boy shot in the street

A cop with a gun

Six witnesses and hard evidence

Darren Wilson is given paid leave rather than put behind bars

Ferguon is called a riot area

As they block off any reports

America the free, America the bave

But still we can't get over this thing called racism to this very day
