Y’all Mad, Huh?
I ain’t gone lie.
I’m eyeing white people hella suspiciously.
I can’t distinguish between ally or white supremacist.
It’s stressful.
My head is spinning just thinking about it
Who knew an election could have you fearing for your life more than usual?
Oh, you’re mad that things aren’t going your way?
Try hundreds of years of disenfranchisement and oppression
Try progressing while enduring constant harassment
Try having war declared against you
Try being legislated against; going from 3/5 of a human being to second class citizen.
Try building an entire country brick by miserable brick and then being told you don’t belong.
Y’all mad?
We’ve been mad
But we don’t arm ourselves and surround buildings with guns over dumb shit
We don’t incite civil war

We just want to live and enjoy a piece of the pie we helped bake
Y’all mad?

It’s time to get active like our predecessors and stay that way
It’s time to ascend
