Black Man Just Like Me
Turn on Cops what do I see?
The cops beating a Black man who looks just like me.
Turn on the evening news what do I see?
Newscasters celebrating the conviction of a Black man who looks just like me.
Turn on MTV what do I see?
Mysogynistic lyrics from a Black man who looks just like me.
Turn on Sports Center what do I see?
Anchors laughing at the loss of a Black man who looks just like me.
Look in the mirror what do I see?
Tears of a Black man who looks just like me.
