racialy flawed sentencing peroid 2

Judge sits in thrown as if king
Regal white curls fall like snow globes
Never to see the light of day
Verdicts drop like atom bombs
To moms dreams
She crumples and screams
Her baby had the look of being alone lost at sea
His dark eyes raised, red and still cryin
But what was his crime?
Being out past nine?
Or was it the fact that he was in possession of dime
That’s only a misdemeanor
But his sentence was meaner
And even though his record was cleaner then household cleaners
He’s being charged with intention to sell
I mean what the hell
That little green bag
That he bought from a hag
To prove he had swag
Will land him in a cell
Does this ring a bell?
That this is not right
That we’ve got to fight
Because it seems like the thing he’s being charged for is not being white
But what do you think
Would he be better off if his skin tone was pink?
Or would his life to be washed down the sink
