Must I Fight



Must I fight?
For Freedom!
For My Rights.
Hey! Let’s shed some light.
When Rosa Parks didn’t get up,White man didn’t shake her up. MOVE! he said and she still didn’t budge.
Must I Fight?
Another black man gunned down.
Mistaken identity knock off a kings crown.
Black women raped,Beaten, and Broken.
Creating children cause they don’t believe in a Trojan.
my knowledge is golden.
A problematic prophet.
The one people don’t like to speak on broken promises.
ALOT of people are narcissists.
And I’m not just being a bitch when I say, just because woman who don’t like dick are gay.
But that’s a different subject for a different day.
Must I Fight.
Through the day into the night.
Wondering who might take my life.
Should I fight for what I believe knowing a lot are praying down on me.
