Words professed, boxes checked. 

Minds washed clean of those suffering. 

Or did you even let them in?

Did you blame it on their sin? 

While saying we’re all kin, 

But elevating the color of your own skin?

Morality is a dot to you. 

If you opened your eyes to the pain you cause, 

The tears you cause, 

The fear you cause, 

For your cause? 

Would you even dare to repent and repair? 

Or would you then miss your own applause? 

So, you continue to separate and negotiate. 

Segregate and differentiate. 

Cling to hate. 

Dominate and violate. 

But when will you advocate to liberate and emancipate? 

You know, like your Lord? 

See, I’ve been on the inside of this, 

and it’s full of prejudice. 

Ignorance is bliss and the truth is dismissed. 

Pain is dismissed and even Jesus dismissed. 

And all for a so-called heavenly kiss? 

Nah, it’s clear to see you’ve missed. 

Cause I can’t unsee what I have seen. 

While living in that world that’s so fake and unclean. 

Claiming you beam while being hateful and mean. 

Coming apart at the seam. 

You’re clearly on the wrong team. 

Cause I’ve been pleading with you for humanity since I was just a teen. 

But you say I always cause a scene,

And I need to be redeemed. 

So, I’m done. I’m moving on. 

I’m joining hands with those who wanna get work done. 

Pursuing equity and justice for everyone. 

Challenging the systems that cause suffering to continue to come. 

Pay attention and live as one.
