The Beginning (Rap lyrics by V Swizzle)

Acceptable Differences  (Rap lyrics by V Swizzle)

 

Our world is non-binary.

We are not all unarmed 

or all open carry.

We are not all left 

or all right.

We are not all black 

or all white.

 

This good world is worth 

the good fight.

But we are not all wrong 

or all right.

We are not all ones 

or all zeros.

We are not all poor hoes 

or rich heroes.

 

This isn’t either/or, 

y’all know.

Sometime you pay, 

sometimes you owe.

This world still spins around without you 

and without me.

So how do we want to leave it, 

OUR leg-a-cy?

 

A blue green sphere of hope 

and humanity.

Or a smoldering orb of hate 

and insanity.

Or some cool continuum of honesty 

and equality.

That will take critical thinking 

and actual humility.

 

Do not tell me how to feel

Do not tell me how to think

Just show me that you CARE

Enough to pull me back from the brink

 

And I will do the same. 

Because this ain’t no silly game

It just cannot be 

how it ‘sposed to end

This is real, dog, so walk beside me 

and be my friend

 

The End
