Communication

Communication

I listen, I hear, I see but you don't believe me

Cause my skin brown and I'm from a different generation than you

So you think it's okay to beat me

Im someone's child I know you have one too

Why can't you think before you shoot

Your peers won't be mad if you do

It's better than my mother grieving

And my father acting similar as you

Please don't make that move

Give me a chance to finish school

Let me prove my life is worth it

Yes my future is uncertain

But who are you to take my life

We can stand toe to toe and fight

But im going to be the bigger man

Put my hands up and and walk away

I rather for us to meet on different circumstance

Man this feel like a stick up

If you going shoot then hurry up

I have home work todo

I'm only eager to do it cause I met you

Boom boom boom

My future became a dream

My past becomes all I have

I pray to God that he has my back

And forgives you

No need to cry now you made your move

Now watch my people march

For they will never forgive you

Now your life is in danger

Turn your family into strangers

Just cause you didn't know how to use a taser
