We As Black
Get Hurt Seeing
Our People Die
In The Hands Of White People
From Slaving Them
Blacks Aren't Brought For Slavery
We Came Here To Live A Life
Like Everyone Have

© Ice Cube in "Are We There Yet?"

I know what you're saying and it really is true. Personally I think black people are awesome and I wish more people thought that way too.

Nice poem, keep writing!
