Are you an easy target?

What is happening
to my human rights?
my power is lacking
to put up a fight
they have the power
to tell me how to live
their attitudes are sour
I’m reluctant to forgive
it’s a waste of blood
the way they treated me
with my face in the mud
they think they’ve defeated me
they make me so furious
I could take it out on others
but now I’m curious
my issues need to be covered
it’s my prerogative
I wouldn’t be so uptight
if others would let me live
gaining back my human rights!!
