SOCIETY/MINORITIES

 

Society doesn’t want to see minorities succeed

Especially Hispanic’s who are so in need

 

 

Poverty is an issue for us and counseling is a must

We’ve taken many wrong directions because in no one we can trust

 

 

We become teenage mothers and quit school

We have no one to guide us and show us it’s not cool

 

 

They rate us in statistics and judge us by the majority

We don’t get a turn to learn and earn and we get no priority

 

 

They might call us spics or hicks or use other racial comments

They hate to view us as important as Doctors, lawyers, or sergeants

 

 

We go through embarrassment and sometime even through harassment

What they don’t know is that we are, in fact, intelligent

 

 

I got my associates degree but that’s not where I want to be

I won’t give up until my masters I achieve

 

 

I would like to see my people accomplish more or less the same

To show our cruel society we’re not all about the game

 

We need to stick together to prove we are not lame

And of our culture, we have no shame
