They Will Not Apologize
Location
If there's one thing that disgusts me about the world today it'd be the lack of acknowledgment of wrongs
This country is the biggest offender especially when its main goal is based off of legal tender
And see everyone believes that times have changed and things are okay
But I only see the same game every single day
As an individual who is also a minority
I know that the welfare of my culture is not top priority
And this is something the revolution will not televise
The fact that when it comes to the wrongs this country has done
They will not apologize
Let me rephrase that
The I'm sorry goes to the people worth of that right and the ones that are worthy are also known as white
Some say that through this poem I'm angry and offensive
But that's an indicator of one being on the defensive
And the saying is that a hurt dog will holler
So if you were more understanding you wouldn't have even bothered to get offended
So people wonder if the ones with color will ever be reconciled for the hurt that was done
Or will peopl keep using the excuse blame the father and not the son
And people the truth hurts as I speak these real but acidic words
Do you really think we'll get an apology?
If they’re trying to eliminate the board of education
And the black community can't even get reparations
So do you really think we’ll get on I’m sorry from this nation?
I’ve written a poem that is dangerous to publicize
But I’m gonna say it anyway
Because the truth will not be televised
And they will never apologize
