I can't believe this crime has been done
Trayvon had skittles
Zimmerman had a gun
The kid was innocent
No crimes he had done
But because he was black
And he had the hoodie on his back
Something wrong he must have done

I'm sick and tired of the racism
I hate people that have so much hate in them
Just because my face has pigmentation
I face discrimination
From the people who favor segregation

They call my people animals and brutes
Savages spreading havoc
But they commit crimes
There's no sense to the madness
And we see no justice
We only see our people get un-faired
They say we are terrifying
But they spread fear
Now we must comfort our youths
Who cry because they're scared
Our population drops
Our extinction draws near
I don't even know why I'm saying this
The racist will never care
And to you Trayvon
I hope you find peace up there
