Racial Injustice

Racial Injustice

 

It’s really all about the money

Pitting black on white

Telling lies

Making them fight

So they don’t organize

Greed ain’t funny

They say if you’re from the hood

You can’t be any good

A disgrace

An inferior race

But it is clearly understood

When they declare war

They’re happy to take the poor

Hatred’s deep kiss

Racial injustice

The good old boys

Have a circle thin

To share life’s joys

They won’t let you in

But if you betray your kind

You will find

They don’t mind

An Uncle Tom or two

But for me and you

Well we get this evil analysis

Of racial injustice

The satanic wisdom

Of this insidious system

Everybody is fully aware

That it ain’t fare

But they don’t care

White man hating what he sees in the mirror

Snorting cocaine eases his pain

All so his life vain

Is seen all the more clearer

A strong man don’t put others down

Like leaders don’t need a crown

But these jokers pale

From Harvard and Yale

Are superficial, artificial, comical clowns

Inflicting us with their frowns

Hear them hiss

Racial injustice

This Pilgrim’s pride

Land of the brave

Was purchased by genocide

And built on the backs of the slave

But if you take a look

In the history book

You’ll see none of this

Racial injustice

The list is quite long my friend

In fact this poem may never end

But God is good

And it is understood

In Heaven’s bliss

It will be totally free

Of racial injustice

After the Fire

  After the Fire

 

 

Books burned as Alexandria was looted

Furious fires full of choking smoke polluted

Knowledge of millenniums consumed in the flame

What a shame

Voices, guardians of civilization, a guide

Denied

 

From the furious fire always to remember

To straggling pockets of hot ember

A soft reddish glow

Now only ashes to know

Gray dust for the wind to blow

To the corners of the Earth to and fro

 

Do you mourn for the secrets lost

Treasure gained at such a high cost

What was learned before

We can learn once more

Of that I am sure

 

So what remains after the fire?

Strange

Mankind did not change

He still contains his desire

After the fire
