A Woke Mind

Though I am not one of a kind But, I indeed have a woke mind, For years I have been woken, and about it I have spoken And souls like me are not that hard to find. I read books and I don't ever burn them Not even in violence or for a whim, If I don't like the book, I don't give it a second look Book reading is knowledge prelim. I always embrace science With unto me you will find no defiance, God is the greatest scientist, because of him all does exist And that gives me my reliance. When new information ever becomes available When it's placed for me on the table, My mind I'm willing to change, to it I'm not estrange Unto facts I'm always salable. I understand that most issues are not black and white I also know that wrong is never right, And the color of the skin, doesn't give you a loss or a win For that fact I'm willing to fight. I believe in true equality for one and all Whether your name is Jose', Juan, Aaron, Amari or Paul, We all have the right to live, the right to help and give None of us should be refused by a wall. I enjoy and I embrace to help and share To friends and strangers both here and there, I embrace cooperation, around the world and in every nation i respect others rights and I hope for brotherhood and care. I believe culture and the arts have great value And I believe that together we all can do, I care not for worries or strife, but I care for the planet and all of its life Yes, I woke just in time to help you.
