This piece was written awhile back with a few tweaks to it. I never released it so I felt like sharing it here. Like, comment and follow me on Instagram @K.Exum
When was it great
All these people keep getting raped
In what form or shape was this country great
Gangs go at it every day
When was it great
Cops been roughing up people
People try to stay on they grind
Just to incline
Are you blind
Kick out the immigrants
An arrogant way for America
Year after year America is a replica
They blame everyone but themselves
Just to excel
Everything that happened in the past is the reason we can’t excel
America made the black people slaves
Do you think they forgot
This is nonstop
Blacks don’t like whites because of the past
Its’ hard to forget with all the Hollywood movies
But this is part of history that should be erased
And replaced
Just to be great
America makes you forget slaves because that was a bad part on them
But remember 911 because terrorist did that
Remember isis because terrorist did that
Check the stats
But you should forget Harriet Tubman and all those people on them chains
Just so we can gain
And forget about the pain
Now let me explain
When was it great
The immigrants have been living the America dream
When did your nationality define you
Just because they’re Muslim don’t mean they violent
Same goes for the Mexicans
Trump swear all blacks are the same
He’s not even what he claim
Business men don’t go bankrupt that many times
While America continue to find someone to take the blame
While the world go up in flames
All the names dropping from cops
But were not suppose to talk about that
Only about the people that’s trying to get us from the outside
When was it great
When the blacks was on ropes
And there was no hope
Or when Martin Luther King Jr fought for freedom
Or was it great when the blacks was slaves
And we had to wait for someone to be brave
When was it great
What about when these cops harass
And America see straight through them like glass
These racists use to wear mask
Now they are fully out showing their true colors like a butterfly
When was it great
The media put all the blame these days on guns
Let’s talk about these guns
You say no ex- convict should have a gun
Because there’s a chance they start back shooting for fun
But what about that cop that shot Botham Jean with her gun
So far cops use their guns to shoot innocent people with no charge or the bare minimum
Cases like this fly by because they were scared for their life
That’s a little sarcasm for the country that’s been so great
You can’t make something great again if it was never great
Make America great again
Yeah Right
