WHERE I'M FROM

I cannot see or foresee beauty when it’s not there,
To be honest where I’m from beauty is rare
And scarce like gold and diamonds that cannot be found anywhere,
In fact no one at all care
Where I’m from people has lost and gave up their dreams
Even light has lost their beams,
Fires can no longer steams
People have lost taste in food;
They can’t even remember what it means to be good!
What it means to be right,
And what it means to be less oversight
Where I’m from be warned you can no longer walks at night,
You can no longer trust even your family member;
They will reap you alive and say we can’t even remember
Where I’m from slumber with your eyes wide open
Because you might end up without a linen,
Never ever wish to be where I’m from!!
Never ask why because we all know and we all seen it alive
We all turned a blind eye as if we aren’t brave,
We’ve seen people killing one another because of their skin color
Because of what God made them to be
People has been tortured and manipulated based on their skin color
Where I’m from I no longer know so never ask.
