We wear the Mask

• WE WEAR THE MASK (my own version)

We wear the mask, that brings darkness to thier minds,it shadows their thoughts and corrupts their lies

We wear the mask, that to them, makes us look bad and no matter how hard we strive, change never seems to take our side

We wear the mask, that slows down our clock and speeds up their time,

We wear the mask, that makes him look back at us with smiles,while we can only try to keep up with our sadden frowns,

We wear the mask, that tairs us apart cuz of our own stupidity, but helps others beautify their community,

We wear the mask, that keeps us below, and not want to reach up for anothers hands to move foward,

We wear the mask, that codes our language and fails our culture,

We wear the mask, that speaks loud about them and whispers for us,

We wear the mask, that covers our truth and pretends to know,

We wear the mask, that allows the sun to shine for him and rain on us,clouds our skies and lights stars in their eyes,

We wear the mask, but we do not know why,and we question time after time,

Why do we wear the mask? if it does nothing for us,the mask does not better us as a people,the mask is just to cover our own race,reality and true way of life.

We need to realize whats good for us,and go after it with no restrictions,

No reason to sit back and wait,sit back and think,or stay back to fall

We need to realize that we are just as good as the rest,and never stay behind,never skip to keep up but always stay in line

So why do we wear the mask?

We wear the mask, because we are stubborn

We wear the mask ,because we have conformed year after year,and gave up

We wear the mask, because it is easier

We wear the mask, because we have no choice

We wear the mask...
