Dark by Da'Jzon Hughes

It’s scary right?
Makes your muscles go tight
Makes your blood pump
And your hair and ears perk up
It sends you into fear
Like what headlights see from a deer
Obviously it’s nothing new
But people are scared of you
It’s the place of the unknown
It’s where you follow the impulses of your dome
This is all some people see when they look at me
This is what it’s like to be black, this is what it’s like to be me
