be counted out of the
black on black hate,
realizing that no matter
how you see it, it’s still
hate on hate
be counted in for the total sum of
love plus love equals,
black on black love,
one love,
showing up
and not giving up
be counted in on the total sum of
love plus love equals,
a little one on one,
black on black love,
for one another
let’s come alive,
be alive,
stay alive,
hate is hate
no matter
whose got the hate
the dawn of hate
rises with more hate
arriving and
shining no daylight while
darkness moves in
and shines its hate
time after time,
instructing our steps
out and beyond the
realms of hate and
relieving us from the
days of hate
that’s working harder than we,
we the people
but his whisper,
a whisper of relief
and a prayer in strength
encompassing a new
and better day for each
day that we rise and
walk through all of
hate’s hate
hate is hate
no mater, whose got the hate
love is love
no mater whose got the love
love yourself,
to love your race,
to love another race,
to love one another
as one
so show up today and keep it real
with the determination to move on,
to be counted in
where there is black love,
one love, and
be counted out of the
destruction, where hate is hate
have some heart,
some love,
a heart for one love
to become alive,
to stay alive,
to stop the hate,
hate on hate
with
mothers and daughters,
fathers and daughters,
mothers and sons,
fathers and sons,
husbands and wives,
brothers and sisters,
friends on friends,
black hate-on-black hate
