Opinions versus offenses but every one of us is different

Oppression without any confession, due to the certain privilege of some individuals

The voice of one is more prominent over the tears cried by the opposite

Skin Color.

You have never experienced racism, and it is your favorite thing to argue?

But you have never had to fear how someone may harm you.

“Not all cops.” “Not all white people.” are racist

This is something that people are quick to jump to, let’s face it

Then the part of trust is drawn

And no allies part is won

“Not every young black boy walking down the street is a thug”

Now you’re looked at like you are crazy

You are a white cop and get called on a mission to go to an abusive house

But when you get inside everyone there is quiet as a mouse

You see the mother laying there on the floor and right about that time a little boy walks out a door

He walks right over to you, his hands held high

Looking at you but not meeting the eye, then you hear him whimper and fall to his knees

You hear him say something, oh wait no, it was a plead

“Please don’t kill me” you heard him say

You would think about that every single day

What about the mother you fear to think

Living the way, she lives her life must be really discreet

I am the mother, the one that was laying on the floor

I had to deal with him another time before

16, 15, 12, and 4

People did dreadful stuff to me and so much more

Being scared to go outside during the night

Why can’t a woman ever do anything right?

He creates your fear and uses your instinct of physical freedom to control you

And after that happens once you no longer have someone you can turn to

You learn to anticipate his next strike

Always ready for a fight

But you can’t fight him no, never

A fight against yourself to somehow learn to do better

This affects us all and all of us know it

but don’t forget

you’re the odd one out

if you ever

show

it

But how does this affect everyone all the same?

The truth is there will always be someone to blame

And the person to blame always goes from one to another

So so bad to where we all… hate each other

Then comes the peaceful unpeaceful injustice

Until we all end up in the peaceful unpeaceful hospice
