Who's The Victim?

Can still feel the vile torments and rants in the air
I’m still wondering if this is about the colour of my skin and hair.
Repeating this word over again like I haven’t heard it before,
he’s clearly uneducated or maybe poor
I don’t rise to his bait and give him the satisfaction
but don’t think he knew how close I was just a fraction
to losing my calm and insulting him back
is his insults still just cause I’m black
I’ve dealt with this before wouldn’t say it gets easier with time
this ranting and raving just wasting my time.
For what’s the real issue becomes clear when you ask yourself how did I ever get here
to being treated like a hated figure
this guys still voicing off n#}{er, n#}er
it’s clear to see he has nothing more to add
probably this hatred is just extended from dad
because racists aren’t born their raised
I thought this was all unacceptable these days.
I can’t bare it I have to go
but this leaves me questioning what of tomorrow
would this guy ever get help and be saved
or forever be a victim whom no one can save.
What I heard in his voice so childish a fear
again I ask how did we ever get here?
For the pain I feel is not for me but for his kind, who have little thought left of their own,
but have simply become a clone.
What are the real issues? here I’m left to ask
well this is so much more of a task

Hello again, and today is Wednesday, February 6, 2013. Discrimination is bad. In particular I'm talking about racism because like a hamster in its wheel, we get nowhere by using it.

Small Town Thinking

Small town thinking. Big time drinking. Over active fists. On these small town kids. The casual violence. Every night an ambulance. The casual racism. Is a lot like moronism.

"Nigga?" Please!

As we grow in this cage of sheer hate, Still bound by the racism we wished to escape. But blame them I won't for shortcomings not of their own, I blame those where true colors are shown.

Change

The doubt starts to creep in. Slow like a vine wrapping around a flower. Things change, the seasons the weather and people. You wonder if your the only one holding on.
