letra de means to prove - mario william vitale

Loading...

i’ve been chased out of southern states

not by my merit or reason other than my race

i’ve been ridiculed in school

although i am smart with means to prove

i’ve been discriminated in stores

people see only color and nothing more

my ancestors did not come here on purpose

i’m the line of unwanted “property.”

my rights are stated but robbed of me

where am i in the anthem, beneath the surface?

i know a different reality than others

my life swept under the rug, unstated

but my potential contribution underestimated

i want not an apology, just a brother

we have no universal health care

our crime rates are higher than in iraq

officers shoot citizens in the back

not to mention nuclear scares

how can we hate our neighbors?

i’ve seen hate in the eyes of those who claim to be hated

but still we must display comp-ssion, will the stones of history be faded?

our jobs are not our true labors

i have more faith in the stars and stripes

we unite only through belief

ideology heals our grief

a revolution of the intellectual type

until then, i will strive for progress

reframe the future without distress

x-ray examination of my character
