They shoot us down like the Onceler cuts down truffula trees

then they are upset when we shout “Black Lives Matter”

so they decide to come up “All Lives Matter”

as if the knock off brand was better than the Name brand

They have already Taken everything from us,

Our lives, homes, and families

and then when we find a way to stand up for ourselves

they find a way to mock us.

They Shout “All Lives Matter” as if it is justification for the injustice brought

upon my people by the justice system

a system so silly with their simple, selfish, inconsiderate selves

that they forget the system was created to protect the white lives that Shoot us down.

but hey

theres no need to listen

to us just

as the onceler didnt listen

to the Lorax
