Go ahead and shoot
No need to say, “My Brotha”
No need to plea for life
So many fought to be free Slaves
So many died for rights.
Who am I to ask for more time?
Why should I think of?
You think of—
Who I shall leave behind?
You look like me
I resemble you
Go ahead and shoot.
Not surprised
Should be surprised
But this is just what we do. ©
