guess we were all made different
and for some certain purpose
you chose me
i don't know why
but maybe cause it's me
guess cause i am real
and not what you see on t.v.
i've been around the block and back
but guess all you remember was my back
you gave me a load
you thought i could handle
but all i wanted was just to dismantle
it seemed like you were picking on me
why?
is because of my dark skin
or my nappy hair
i was placed here just like you
is it cause i'm fat and tall
but all you want is that alcohol
i am tired of you abusing me
just let me live or just kill me
this is me inside and out
sometimes i feel like i just want to shout
i'm screaming for help
can't you hear me
this is me in the real and the flesh
just wondering if this was even a test
to let you all know of this child
who tried to protest
and as i awoke from this horrible dream
you would believe that this was even a dream
