And no I do not fill my mind
by reading news on television
My Grandson went to the park
His friends are all of mixed races
Made the mistake of going to the restroom alone
It was in a major downtown park
Jumped, robbed, by five,racial slurred words said
I won't repeat what he was called
My friend was driving home from work
A car pulled up and shot him dead
It was a racial killing
My friend does not own a stolen gun
This week there was robbing and looting
A tiny boy was killed chased down by a cop
What would the reaction be?
Run to the streets and loot
What do the local reporter's say
Here's one: On a color line
We shouldn't have to worry
It is proven they are killing their own
90 percent of the time
I worry the other ten percent
And many of their own are my friends
The racial thing is the response is on a color line
All races should be incensed
at the rise of crime and killings
I know what we should do--make drugs legal?
Has this generation gone crazy?
A week later in Kent Washington
A Cadillac pulled in sideways blocking
The entrance of a gas station
Yes it was racial they were gang members
Asked to move they shot and killed the station attendants
The were being disrespectful
Respect is earned, I respect my veteran brothers
Yes there is a problem with race and it begins at home
