Bulls-EYE

I'M THE BIGGEST TARGET,
OUT THERE IN AMERICA
My mom is left to only say,
Be care-ful,

Because I walk,
A cop has a bullet for my chest,
Leaving me gasping for my last breath,
Hoping his fellow officers will help,
I should've thought twice,
Because they don't care,

They're just a gang,
That replaces flags with a badge,
And call it justice,
When they murder a future dad,
Someone never had,
I bet they secretly glad,

You cut the head off the snake,
Does it still moves?
You killing the black man,
But you can't make us looooose,

Because there are stats that say,
In few decades,
It'll be more of us than yooooou,

EVEN NOW THERE'S STATS SAYING THAT YOU'RE PLUMMETING,
I bet you can't stomach it,
You keep VOMITING,
So you kill another darkie but stats,
YOU CAN'T RUN FROM IT,

So in the end,
Mothers hold your sons close,
Cherish them before a cop gets suspicious,
And they go ghost,
And young men,
Learn how to maneuver,
So they won't shoot ya,
Try to run the department,
So they can't shoot ya,
But if you plan to take over the world,
Take calculated steps,
Towards your future,
Because they can kill your dreams,
If you let them do it to ya

Inspired by Marvin Sapp's "Never Would Have Made It"

Never would have made it, Would be in the grave if, That knife was closer, If that condom wasn’t trustworthy, If them bullets didn’t call somebody else home, You have no idea, How many nights I cried alone, Because my sins were tucked at home, While my conscious dome, Realize God, Let me walk publicly distant from, The struggles I struggle with, When no one talking, Just the devil at my brain, Constantly knocking, I would have never made it to my success, Went through battles, Though no visible battle scars, Just PTSD, And hidden flaws, Things still trigger me, I can’t escape my past, Only can evolve as a person, But can never escape my innate ability, God saved me, But tug of wars I still see Writer: @living_everyday_optimistically (L.E.O.) - Instagram Fan page: @LJS_Writings - Instagram and Twitter

Inspired by Angela Rye's Comments

They made Angela Rye cry, Time for our form of apartheid, People just starting to be woke, People been hanging from ropes, Even a few months ago, They failed to acknowledge the truth, When it’s been staring at you, 400 years ignored, What does that say about you? It’s cool, You didn’t believe what we say, Then we provided you videotapes, You choke us to death, Shoot us to dead in broad day, And we’re feeling helpless, And our mothers continue to cry every day, I’m still hopeful for better, And I believe in God, Sometimes I wish I could lash out, But my hands are tied, Can’t be the hero my people need, It hurts me to see, The level of success I have, Yet it still don’t matter, They still treat me like a savage, Hate that our babies have to grow up in this madness, Feel like daily, Amerikkka has given us sadness Writer: @living_everyday_optimistically (L.E.O.) - Instagram Fan page: @LJS_Writings - Instagram and Twit
