The system raped me
So I raped it
Nothing but disrespect
For the founding fathers who chose to neglect
My life and my ancestors intellect
The system was engineered
And geared
And steered in the
Direction of oppression and neglection
The miseducation of the negro
I can’t see my reflection
Don’t know how to write
So I can’t sign the petition
The system raped me
But I’m still here
The system raped me
But the ends near
No fear
In the presence of
The oppressor
This system is beneath me
It’s lesser
The system killed me
But I rose from the dead
To prevent hate from being
Spread
