Congratulations society, you have finally won
You have broken my spirit, now I feel like I’m done
Everything that I had is either missing, stolen or lost
I have tried and tried; this life does my soul exhaust
Now I sit here waiting for my dreadful holocaust
Yes I have finally been broken, through to my core
Against me this system was designed to wage war
I am the deviant, the “other" and almost a centaur
For how dare I be queer poor and black?
For this reason my humanity is under attack
I have suffered enough for me now to relent
Accept that I will not rise above my lament
Lord knows I have tried but it was to no avail
I keep on hoping that my faith will not fail
But this time my patience will not prevail
