We are one
Yet split apart
And so very different
The rift inside
Causes many things
To go wrong
When one of us is sad
She may rejoyce
While she may be sad with her
But we cannot let
Others
Know about
Us
For they will call us
Broken, and say we cannot
Be fixed
And though we are sane
We will not be treated
As such
What life do we live
To have others hate us?
What place is this
Where others judge
And decide who you are?
This is the
Place that promises freedom
But is not free
This is the
Place that promises equalitly
But no one is equal
This is America
Where the history is based
On lies, and slavery
So why judge us?
Why label us?
We are no different
Than you
Yet you act as such
We are two different people
Yet we are one
We both exist
Inside
Yet split apart
And so very different
The rift inside
Causes many things
To go wrong
When one of us is sad
She may rejoyce
While she may be sad with her
But we cannot let
Others
Know about
Us
For they will call us
Broken, and say we cannot
Be fixed
And though we are sane
We will not be treated
As such
What life do we live
To have others hate us?
What place is this
Where others judge
And decide who you are?
This is the
Place that promises freedom
But is not free
This is the
Place that promises equalitly
But no one is equal
This is America
Where the history is based
On lies, and slavery
So why judge us?
Why label us?
We are no different
Than you
Yet you act as such
We are two different people
Yet we are one
We both exist
Inside
