I saw an advert for a job today
On the advert page of the newspaper
I needed an extra job to help pay the bills
My family counted on me to survive
I sent them an email inquiry
And they responded in a few minutes
The job was open and they needed my info
So I sent them my Resumé
I received a response saying
The job vacancy had been taken
I knew right away they were lying to me
I was fit and qualified for the job
Black people are always seen as a threat
And never really taken very seriously
They're serious to pin the crimes on us
But never serious to give us a job
I've learned to love my skin color
Even if it is as dark as the night
They say all humans are equal to them
But they don't practice what they preach.
