My Voice

Lord please give me a voice allow it to be able to reach the hearts and minds of not only my people but all people. We show that people are hurting African-Americans are hurting from years and years of being miss treated. For far too long I voices have fallen upon deaf ears. If it wasn’t for the modern age of video our stories will still remain in the dark. 
   People are crying about losing rioters and other lawlessness. But I ask of you How many of you have cried when we have cried when I loveless lost their lives due to crooked cops being given unfair wages. Governments use eminent domain to take away family homes? How many of you have shit to use for this? How many of you knows what it feels like to go to bed hungry because you can’t afford to feed yourself? 
 The other side speaks on education as being the key to the future. It is proven by statistics most African-Americans will never see college due to cost. Most African-Americans will not see a trade school because of cost. Here we are moving forward in a system that holds us back. How can one sexy when being held back. 
 Our very history have been hidden from us. Because America does not want it sins to be revealed. Blacks hanging from trees, The original second class citizen, Our cities were burned with the blessings of our government. And yet we are told say the Pledge of Allegiance. Fight wars that don’t benefit us that doesn’t bring about change for us.
