" H " is for the History that keeps repeating itself
In a world were the content of DARK skin devalues my health
But does that give officers the rights to take my breath
Blacks losing their lives to Whites who sworn to protect
But , in this Black & White world we're both Americans
Even though our hands are up and I can't breathe is spoken
They still squeeze, squeeze, and squeeze until their magazine is
empty and their barrel is smoking
Blood spills over the concrete like wasted red gallons of paint
They still squeeze, squeeze, and squeeze until their choke hold finally does its submission & leaves us breathless
They want us to protest silently but , hands up , black lives matter; shout proudly
" E " is for the equitability we've been deprive of
With liberty and justice for all ?
Why the government keep chicanery minds for ?
The content of our skin darker than yours
That's what my brothers keep dying for ?
" L " is for Life and all lives matter
L is for Liberty but treated like captives
L is for Love but hatred still exist
From past occurrences repugnant to reminisce
" P " is for Progression but we have a lot to still overcome
Over three hundred years of oppression, but look what we've become
A black president , doctors, and professors but, viewed as scums
This not a bawl for help but , a reason to keep enduring
