Dear America

Everyone is searching for answers in the midst of current tragedies Two unarmed black men and five white cops gunned down mercilessly Black in Americans are incensed over the slaying of so many black men But the answer is not the killing of white cops to make it even Yet there is very little sympathy or justice when a black man is slayed But if a white cop is shot a social uproar is on full display Dear America I need you to comprehend it's about the economy As there's not enough to go around for the majority The economical and political climate of Jesus's time is just like today Where the poor and downtrodden are hopeless, harassed and totally dismayed The system then and the system now continues to perpetrate A class of low income and disenfranchised who can never formulate A means to attain any kind of status or develop any wealth Living in substandard conditions which affects their self worth Oppressed, depressed and totally distressed Never to ever experience any form of progress And until there is progress for all there will be economic strife And until there is true equality there will be no peace in life We need to address the ideology that systemically demonizes And remember America was founded with violence and needs to realize That African Americans will no longer sit quietly and see our people be killed everyday No justice, no peace and we will have our say We are all children of the most high God He loves us all and has us in His heart You are no better than me and I'm no better than you And the color of our skin doesn't make that less true Dear America I hope you come to comprehend and understand That all lives do matter be you a Caucasian or a Black man Dear America we need to be like Jesus and have true compassion With a desire to make positive change its time to take action Dear America I need you to open your eyes and truly see That there is no more plantation occupancy Black Americans are now educated and many economically sound We are no longer your property so stop trying to tear us down We are more than conquerors we are survivors and we claim the victory Its time for you to let go of that slave owner mentality
