Do you still see a... SLAVE

Do you still see a slave
Shackled and helpless to fight
Do you still see a slave
Scared to be shot down
Shot down while in flight

Do you still perceive yourself
Master, Ruler of all things black
Do you believe yourself superior
Because you crafted mechanisms
And instruments to make it so

Why do you still deny me so
Why must I strive
To my limits and beyond
While you are advantaged
Advantage because of people
Who look like me

People who sweat and bleed
They sweat and bleed
In a system governed by greed
A system in which you thrive
A system in which I am deprived

Do you still see a slave
When you look at people
People who look like me
