One of the realist rappers named Tupac said it best

Changes need to be made of this freakin’ mess

There are blacks that are getting killed by police for no reason

We just want no racism, yeah that’s what we feelin’

Because of these reasons people can’t sleep at night

Just end this hate and let’s make this future bright

There’s a lot of families that are poor and hungry

Just respect people’s beliefs ‘cause this is a free country

Give respect to Kaep’s decision on the football field

Instead of hating on this man, ya’ll should freakin’ cheer

Legends like Muhammad Ali and Jackie Robinson

Thought changes needed to be made and they was ballin’

Ali was taken from three years of his prime

‘Cause he refused to be in the military but that shouldn’t be a crime

People in this world be racist for reasons that are random

This is why Jackie Robinson didn’t stand for the anthem

Kaep said he will continue to stand with the people who are being oppressed

Let’s all kneel down and support his protest

Shout out to the veterans who supported Kaep

And rest in peace to Tupac, the god of rap

I wrote this because I love to write meaningful poems and I wanted to support Kaepernick in his protest. I was inspired by Tupac's song "Changes" which he said all that is wrong in this society.
