Sitting, more like standing;
In a crowd of people like roaring lions
out for your blood.
Not understanding situations can’t be helped.
No fault can be blamed.

Who thinks the white man overrules all?
Who believes it’s really all others?
It’s those who realize, register, recognize.
Your race has little to do with who you are;
Screaming “Get out the hell out of my country…”
degrading who you are, makes little sense
to the situation.

If America represents freedom:
Why is nobody really free,
Why is everybody out for revenge,
Why are other ethnicities ridiculed…
just because of their skin color?

Representing freedom takes skill
Like baking a cake;
May seem easy, harder than it looks.
