I CANT BREATHE


Look at the situation we're in, freedom is a foreign thing Love is without observation, forgiveness without administration Unity is an utopian ideal, breathing an impossible reveal Reality is a strange imposition, who'll be George Floyd herein Who can't breathe without rights Check the men in government, they'll speak progress and development Voice verses of encouragement, practice absolute underdevelopment Silence voices of thought and reason, inspire fluency of ardent sycophancy Subtly aspire for apt blasphemy, openly assuming messianic complexity Truth needs to be in position, Who'll hear Bob Marley herein Who must stand up for rights Pick on parliament representations, segregation of others is without reason With unprecedented sensitization, they emphasize on ethnic extraction Some communities feel foreign, in own nations they get alienation We are in a historical disposition, who'll take after Rosa parks herein Who must remain sitted for rights Who bewitched us humankind,He should be paid in good and kind For us to annoint and cleanse, like kids we may learn to forgive Remind us of our equality, like Gandhi we may seek equity We love in gigantic proportions, in enthusiastic style embrace reconciliations ©DMN Muchui, 2020
