What Happened To Us?

Bitch, I’m mad.

Bitch, I’m sad.

Black folks still oppressed,

Still judged, still under-assessed.

Cousin’s calling—needs bus fare.

Other cousin? Her baby’s father ain’t there.

What happened to us?

What happened to the community?

Where’s the love—at least between you and me?

Let’s support one another.

You’re my sister.

You’re my brother.

It’s okay we don’t share the same mother.

Let’s give back.

Stop the attack.

I’m sick of all this black-on-black.
