Brown Skin

Think about it.

The reason racism exists is because we actually matter

I mean,

You are hated because of your

Skin color

Your beauty

Your intelligence

You existence

Our skin is brown

No wonder why they fear us

My skin is brown

We’re guilty just because

This skin has a cost though

And it’s great

You want what we have

But when it’s time to pay

You all run scared

Freedom ain’t free you see

We aren’t really free

Let’s just say if it’s our skin, we’re not

The feeling of being here as just a void

We fear our lives

You fear our skin color

Thinking we can all eat but we’re still starving

Theirs no Greg area when they are taking our lives

Yes, they are killing women too

And even our children

But we still have a biggest problem

Unifying us

Supporting us

We’re clouded by the deadly sins of

Greed

Envy

Making money our God

And once we fix that

We can live

Live as a brown-skinned individual
