I did not know that my color bled
Into each word drenched in red
Not from blood that runs in my veins
From white power, death forever reigns

My lips move with desperate pleas
Only to soothe your team of trustees
You create my story in your mind
Comfort in ignorance keeps you blind 

I scream louder in effort to be heard
Wrapping my emotions in every single word
Condemned for my angry cries
Fingers pointed at my broken eyes 

I am stripped naked and exposed
Opposition has me enclosed
Freedoms door never opened for me
On the other side you all sip on your cups of tea

I knock harder until my knuckles bleed
My vocal cords tear, my hope recedes
In exhaustion I drop to my knees
Hearing you whisper “you pay the fees”

My life was no longer in my control
When my number appeared on your dice roll
I lost long before your game began
A bronze game piece that differed from your iron clan
