Spoken word, Blind King Let me set the tone by saying we didn't ask to be here You brought us here by force and yet you act like you don't want us to be here For 400 years you made kings and queens feel like material things You made them think they were jesters and now their descendants act like our history is a joke But that's only because we don't know how much has been whited out Made Cleopatra white in the movies like that was alright Shot MLK like a dog even though he wasn't putting up a fight Killed Malcolm in prison, Mandela kneeled on George Floyd and yet George Zimmerman is still alive The cops that killed Breonna Taylor are free too Tamir Rice got shot like a dog while playing with a toy gun but Kyle Rittenhouse killed two with an AK But it's okay, I guess he does have the right complexion for protection from the law While the feelings of Tamir's mom are still raw, Kyle's mom gets to hug her son because the boys in blue felt like a black kid with a toy gun posed more of a threat than a white man with a rifle killing people And on top of that y'all tell more lies than Donald Trump during the election Told us that Jesus had hair of bristle and skin of bronze, yet tried to tell us that a guy that looks like Keanu Reeves in a wig is our lord and savior Do me a favor, cut the bullshit Call us dangerous while you shoot up schools, bomb marathons and storm capitol buildings Burning down churches preaching the God while setting fire to crosses How do you expect us to forgive and forget when you won't let us live like normal human beings It's like our very being scares you While your very being propels you without lifting a finger, one day I'll teach my kids how a white man can shoot up a church and be detained But if they walk with a bag of Skittles it's a bigger chance that I'll feel the pain of losing a child
