Dichotomy

I cry for justice

I cry for Peace

I cry for Equality

I beg for you to hear

I beg for you to believe

Don’t condemn me

Don’t hold me accountable for everyone, for anyone

Hear my cries

Hear me

Believe me

Give me justice

Don’t make me afraid

Don’t make my cry

Don’t make me beg

Don’t make me lesser

Give me justice

Give me peace

It’s all that I ask

I don’t want to be more than you

I don’t want to be less than you

I just want to know that my pain moves you

I just want to know that I matter

I don’t want more

I deserve no less

When will you hear

My cries of despair

When will you care

When will you hold me up

When will you help me

When will you say I matter

Not less, not more

Just here
