I don’t wanna talk about white supremacy….
I don’t wanna talk about white supremacy….
Or don’t talk about it with someone, ok?
That’s what black people say
I don’t wanna hear it
Don’t Speak about it
Keep it to yourself
Sometimes turn it down
Don’t bring it up
Or don’t say a word at the table
Yet, we’re at the never endin war
On the planet…some black people
Are afraid to say their experiences
With racism around white folks….
They usually tone it down for them
To be so comfortable even though the
Ghost of trauma still lingers our bones….
There are black people who want to cancel
Other black people who discuss white supremacy
In the public eye..they’re the ones who cut their own
Race off by sayin we’re one human race…those types
Of gaslightin white supremacy talkin points…it gets on
My nerves….yet they experience it right now as we speak…
You see black people don’t realize
We’re in too many genocides, you see
Instead of talkin about racism and not
Doin anythin about it, we’re just playin
Foolin around, gettin distracted, way too
Busy disrespectin ourselves….
There are countless reasons why we don’t wanna
Talk about white supremacy, cos of our anger, maybe
Our deep conditions…even sometimes fear….
We be like i don’t wanna talk about white supremacy…
I don’t wanna know about it…shit, some of us think
The system doesn’t exist which is the worse….look,
White supremacy has us so ignorant, so confused, so lost
Especially dumb…naive, docile…it’s why we can’t save all of
Us cos we don’t understand and we don’t care…,
Poetry and art that speaks about what black people have
To go through, it doesn’t mean metaphors can magically erase
The whole global abuse against melaninated nations…I wish it could
Not even wavin a paintbrush to place justice on the planet….
Though it has real messages..real clear messages that over a lot of heads
And there are a few who gets it….
Still, we don’t wanna read a poem about it, we don’t wanna hear a song
About it…not a lecture either…black race will always ignore the red flags,
And still playin around….they will always turn the other cheek and just foolin
Around…they don’t care…they’re well trained not to give a fuck….
With our mouths from our brains,
We say, “i don’t wanna talk about white supremacy.”
What about our babies, they will run into those situations
Where there’s skin color involved….
Black people need to talk about white supremacy….
They actually need to…we’re at war…..
We’re goin through countless genocides
We keep askin what’s happenin…
Over and over and over
And everybody was like y’all need to wake the fuck up
However the deep sleep got the best of us….
It’s really sad….
Nobody wants to discuss this violent system that
Kills many of us….
