Late hours of night, empty streets,

The sound of deep breaths and thumping of heart,

Are tearing the silence, creepy, suspicious,

Footsteps approaching, this violence is vicious,

Madly I'm searching, a corner, a crevice,

A door that will open or a place to hide,

A place to abide for moments, mere moments,

A bullet has struck, I am losing blood,

But yes I deserve it, I deserve worse,

I deserve death sentence, my life is a curse,

My mind is divided like this road I see,

What is wrong and right? What is left and right?

Whatever, I'm doomed, Whenever, Wherever,

However I go, I will face a blow,

And yes I deserve it, I deserve worse,

The Crime I committed, the sin I have done,

Want to take a bullet from my own gun,

I swear it was really beyond my control,

Cops wouldn't listen, they wouldn't mind,

Shoot at sight orders and so they are blind,

No trial, no hearing, no summon, just a gun,

My friends are all dead, I saw one crying,

I saw one dying, why blood is so cheap?

But the crime I committed, the sin I have done,

And yes I deserve each and every attack,

The Crime I committed? I was born black!
