White Knee On A Black Neck

It seems like a horror movie but unfortunately this is real life

Death, sorrow, fear, anger have caused the country lots of strife

Our blood and sweat built this very nation

Only for our counterparts to hate our very creation

Marching was not enough to show our hurt and our anger

We got so worked up that we put our own lives in more danger

But what do you do when we’re killed because of the color of our skin

When we try to level up in every way but still can’t seem to win

Against the ones who put their white knees on our black necks

God help us to be a ray of sunshine in this world instead of just a suspect
