Black & Already Armed
Black & Already Armed
I don’t have a gun,
Trust you a know if I did,
Why am I shaking?,
I’m black, scared,
And I have kids,
I don’t have a gun,
No need to yell freeze,
Fear of a back shot,
So yes I’ll already freeze,
I don’t have a gun,
I do play sports,
You I can out run,
Not the bullet from your gun,
I don’t have a gun,
What? Oh that there,
The black on my side,
Its just only pride,
Sir I don’t have a gun.

Brother, I know your pain and your fear. I'm a 300 lb. Black man with a 57 inch chest and 22 inch arms. I hope we can both survive to teach our children to succeed in this crazy world
