I wonder why you can't see me
We look the same, we breathe,
Trauma shares the same birthday
Born on ships and chains, we prayed
Thinking you would help me through
You just built a wall so tall
For me, my kind, we felt so small
From the same queen, my lord?
We turn your backs when we
We kneel with you but then you ghost
From the same queen mother
Hear me out, don't walk away
Quoting scripture in my ear
It only amplifies your fear
Jesus hung with the enemy
But down on all folks like me
So would Je sus do you right
The one who loves and forgave
Yes, I read the good book
Read up on love, take a closer look
In your body, your lovely dress
And I remember your brother
From the shame queen mother
He turned your back when we
Knew it you were but then you ghost
An open letter from me to you
it, and when you're through
Give your brothers and sisters a call
We just wanna talk, that's all
