bruised,abused,forgotten
that's how I feel
my ghostly phantom surrounds me
lord please repeal

a world with two colors
black and white
one superior one inferior
what a gruesome sight

thirteenth
my chains departed
soul still lost
the divide imparted
lord please repeal

fourteenth
little rock nine
government unperturbed
the visible parting line
a pain still endured

bruised, abused, forgotten
that's how I feel
a cold world surrounds me
lord please repeal
