you dont like the color of my skin so you spit in my face whip me with whips. break every bone in my body because he color of my skin isn't the same as yours.
you murdered my family in front of me so i can fall on my weak knees
you make me pick cottonn all day cause it amuses you, you rape and beat me because you say my blackness will cover it up.
it will hide all the tears i shed
it will cover up all the blood and all the burns of what you did
you say im your number one slave and that i need to obey my master and that i should listen to my master but how cn i when you beat every time i make a mistake how can i when you whip me and rape me and push around like im some kind of animal just because my skin isnt the same as yours dosent mean i should be treated like trash like dirt im human not trash not dirt im human.
