I was a slave to my parents

and everyone else's parents

if dared to press up I'd be 

dealt with and done for

I knew oppression long before

stepping out into this hate filled

world I understand the rebellion

of young people you can't respect

what don't respect you

you can't respect what don't

respect itself you can't bow down

to what's not your God

my elders didn't know

they couldn't help themselves

they didn't know nothing else

they wasn't smart they did what

they was taught they couldn't

love they didn't have a heart

couldn't speak speech wasn't free

broken bones from sticks & Stones

 beat until blood seeped

 called it discipline wishing I could  

rise up to kill the whole household

for all the trauma stirring in my soul

can't blame the youth of today

for being made that way

let's just call it getting even
