BLACK OR WHITE

 All I see is people killing people,

Using colors as an excuse.

"I killed him because he's white"

"He was black so I knew he was going to attack"

Then the offensive words sink,

And the body gets aggressive,

And the attacks slowly stream in.

Black or white which side are you on?

Either way pick up that gun,

And down any man that isn't yours.

I see people killing people,

The color had nothing to say.

No hand in this,

Yet no mouth to speak.

To defend itself and say,

"I'm just a color what say do I have to one's personality"

"What say do I have to one's temperament"

"I make you distinct, yes I agree"

"But I don't ever remember making you anything less or more than human"

But I believe,

Even if the color cried and screamed,

The sounds of the gunshots and arguments would drown its voice out.

The MeMe By Jay

  The MeMe Introduction : I'm not sure i know how to introduce this properly because i've been avoiding this for such a long time, i know i'm not ready to be as expressive as i'm about to be now, but i'll do my best. This is the first time i'm going to be working with haikus, i've found them intricate but not something i could handle properly, I think i'm ready now though… Not sure but i think i am.

Outro   Introduction This came from an intriguing place, I’ve been listening to CLB and was lost in thought, when the words for this piece started coming. This is going to mean something different to everyone; I just hope your Nameless thoughts can be interpreted because they are loud enough to be exclaimed. Mini Playlist 1.    Pipe Down by Drake 2.    Yebba’s Heartbreak by Drake 3.    Girls want Girls by Drake 4.    Fountains By Drake 5.    Purple Heart By Dave 6.    Law of Attraction by Dave 7.    7am on Bridle Path By Drake P.s.
