I am Trayvon Martin

I am Trayvon Martin My son is Trayvon Martin We are Trayvon Martin What ever happened to a dream deferred When justice is blurred How many people saw and heard This young man crying for help You are Trayvon Martin We are Trayvon Martin The invented enemy The excuse to exterminate, eliminate and humiliate All to preserve false ideologies of elitism All to keep the rich, rich and the poor, poor All for power Be careful where you wear Your hoodies You might be mistaken for a hood see That's all the excuse they need To try to cover up their greed Most of us are boppin along Like everything is ok Not realizing They are Trayvon Martin I am Trayvon Martin We are Trayvon Martin How many more Trayvon Martin's do we need How many more Amadu Diallo's When are we going to say enough is enough I've died a thousand times I died again allstar weekend Remember Trayvon Martin I am Trayvon Martin We are Trayvon Martin Let's keep our son's from becoming Trayvon Martin Copyright 2012 Jeffrey Kennebrew
