Black Butterfly
Our children are dying
Slaughtered upon amerikkkan streets
Their blood soaks the concrete
A mother cries a tearful song of death
Another Afrikan child
Has taken his last breath
Written off as a statistic
For the caucasian another victory
An endless cycle of genocide
But how can we stem the tide
Made in amerikkka
The afrikan youth
On the brink of extinction
Depraved in the red white and blue
Fighting the odds to becoming a man
Set back in life for taking a stand
The Afrikan males life
From beginning to end
From the ghettoes to the state pen
Than back again
Black on Black crime
Ignorance is high
Unknowing or unwittingly
Were’re killing for their side
“WHITE MAN CAPITALIZING OFF OF US DOING TIME”
Private prisons appearing as maggotts
Devouring our souls
A race trapped in an abyss of time
But revolutionaries
Revolutionize
A vision to recognize
Knowledge will open doors
On a world where
The Afrikan soars high with eagles
Beyond the atrocities of the ghetto
Their tentacles of knowledge
Resuscitating our youth
Admonishing them the evils
Of the red white and blue
Slowly emerging
Out of cocoons of ignorance
Thirsting for the knowledge at hand
The Afrikan male
A fearless warrior
Human
Just like you
