Nation We Call "Free"?

I have grown tired.
Society chasing.
In this nation we call "free".
A "free" nation you say?
Blacks are still living in poverty.
Gunned down and discriminated against.
Naïve to think this all diminished.
We are ALWAYS "expected to".
Stripped and exhausted every muscle.
This modern society we live in.
Expensive things only others can experience.
Minimum wage not even close to change.
Our children running in the streets.
But our nation is "free".
You are right.
It is "free".
"Free" to make it much more difficult without even realizing.
Making clothing sizes 10 times too small.
Making lengths average.
Difficult if you are tall.
Selling a vision.
We have so much talent
But it is either hidden, stolen, or taken away
Misconstrued for the outside prey.
Pure mangos
And natural coconuts.
Segregation of hair products with chemicals made for the un-natural or the "perfect".
But we too soil our own hands.
Committing the same acts to our own.
We should come together as one.
The oversaturation of our blood and our roots.
I have grown tired.
These days a man can not get a job.
Because he is not good enough for the "white man".
Yet we are told we NEED to get a job.
A nation of "need".
Why not a true nation of the "free".
Because this is not.
Folks racism still exist.
Living at your own risk.
We should beat to our own drum.
But I have grown tired.
I am coming undone.
Because in this nation we call "free".
We are still slaves as far as I can see.
