I wasn't gonna talk on this topic
I wasn't gonna talk on this topic.
I wasn't gonna sit and write on this topic.
But its right that we fight with this topic.
Realign with this topic
And aim blame to find shed light on this topic
I wasn't even gonna shed light on this topic
-Cause police brutality is something I couldn't fathom
Till I looked in between the gaps and the cracks in the U.S
And I read "Black lives Don't matter"
That should never be trending on Twitter- Not in this generation!
This should never be trending on Twitter.!
Freedom of speech is important in the U.S
Its the most extreme land in the world is the U.S
Even in prison rights are important.
"I Can't Breathe"- So I can't make a sound
People who did lynchings..they have badges now
They have become too friendly with their triggers.
This time I won't blame it on the 2nd amendment.
