Body left dissipated, obliterated,
oh Emmett Till,
Investigators could not tell if it was a human or mutilated road kill,
his eye was gouged from his head,

You are late to every event,
in the mirror you stare,
minutes quickly turn into hours,
but you don't seem to care,

Poverty, depression, and rejection are everyday ordeals,
no birds chirping, police sirens wake us up to breakfast meals,
by meals I mean bread, spoiled milk, and government cheese,
as you walk outside the gun powder smell is so strong it can bring you to your knees,
...
You are too dark,
you have a lisp,
your stomach is bulging,
they said..
...
I'm going for the
Gold,
My heart is in control,
Trying to succeed

You lead a luxurious life, superior finance allows you to have a sense of grandiosity, people of a lower stature seem to fit the perfect mold for the term irrelevant,

so you begin to question your sobriety, maybe thats the answer,

The Emancipation Proclamation was put into effect in 1863,
That meant freedom for slaves,
the ones who looked like me,
blood, sweat, and bullets were shed along with tears,
...
Street walking all day,
same clothes all winter,
people look in disgust,
they think you are temperamental,
...
