My White Professor

My white professor 

Why are you teaching my children A reason to hate 

You talk us up and 

put us down to 

raise up the stakes 

My white professor a question 

Why can't we be great? 

You teach them wrong is right 

In a world that's black and white 

Professor here's a test 

What color do you see best ?

It doesn't matter you don't help the negro 

He put his hands up 

but y'all still shot my hero 

what about my classmate Trayvon 

With skin that held melanin 

My white professor

 you let his darkness hinder his light 

And set him free 

U expelled the black kid with skittles and a tea 

The next class over is speech and debate

Tell me professor is that the class you hate ? 

The only class that gives us blacks a voice

And we made a choice to say 

black lives matter 

We made a disruption 

My white professor this all because of your corruption

But we take the blame 

Which makes us hold our head in shame 

So 

It's hard to explain the reason

 I'm stressing 

I gotta be holly and molly to make a good impression. 

Oppression anxiety and even depression  is what they use to teach all my people a lesson. 

But what do they teach ? 

I'm asking you my white professor 

Cover my black board with your white lies and when the chalk breaks 

A black kid dies
