Blacks Are Not

Blacks are not inferior to nobody Whites are not superior to nobody Asians are not inferior to nobody Black people have an immense versatility Blacks are from jet charcoal to alabaster ivory Black color is full of diversity, like a university Nobody is lazy Nobody is crazy But some are lazy But some are crazy There is no Goddarn controversy here Blacks want equal opportunity To succeed like everyone here This is not a travesty This is not a tragedy This is not a comedy Asians are not superior to nobody Whites are not inferior to nobody Blacks are not superior to nobody This stupid thing about race makes no sense We need to eliminate or eradicate ignorance We need to use our intelligence And practice humility and tolerance A lot of sadness and massacres exist in history A lot of cruelties and crimes exist in history Let's practice love and unity We can now write better stories We can use the past and memories To build a better future For God's sake and for Mother Nature.
