I saw when you first knelt in front of the flag.
I was like “damn this nigga is crazy BAD.”
I was shocked, but I thought it was for publicity.
Black lives matter? Not in this country’s white ass memory.
I remember when grown man Zimmerman shot Travyon Martin.
Racial profiling ends with young black bodies in coffins.
Nobody, fights for racial injustices.
"We tired boss, the system is corrupted."
We too scary, our melanin is black magic, our blood is tainted with crippling disease
The public is uncomfortable with Kap’s dirty brown knees
People were angry. BUT Kap, I was inspired!
You made me pay attention to the TRUTH in the fire.
It took a long time, but I’m a proud black woman.
Seeing you brotha’ made me realize I got to keep going.
Football is life, I know because I’m an athlete too
But some things in life are bigger than you.
You got kids dancing off your energy.
Name another athlete who doing real things in the community?
Other people’s mouth’s flapping, all they do is just talk.
But, My boy Kap, He is walking dat walk.
I can dab to that. Cuz sometimes, I feel inadequate
But sir, you make me feel important Mr. Kapernick.
My ancestors died for this shit!
They got beat for this shit!
America, America- home of the brave
Why won't you listen to the cries of the slaves.
Being black ain't nothing we can choose to be!
I believe in Freedom but not like this-
that flag is a freedom symbol,
fabric don't last forever, but ideals hold suite.
So this red, white, and blue is supposed to wipe our tears and heal our wounds?
My grandfather fought in World War II. Came back home to Jim Crow too.
Don’t listen to the haters Kap, they don’t know what it’s like to be black.
They say hateful things about you, but best believe Kap
We got yo Back!
