Traitor

(corporate Uncle Tom)

skin is like mine

speak is mine too

path is my own

flavor brand new

diff’rent breed of person

similar to us

only diff’rence

their suspects of distrust

watching your back

whenever around

questions of integrity

none to be found

using their color

as a guise for misgivings

to watch you fall is a collective mission

when you plunge

they ascend to grandeur and grace

knowing their loyalty

has been blindly misplaced

they step on your back and dance on your ambition

stand on your aspiration

and their merit be risen

to heights of glass ceilings

still not broken

and self-realization

of another mans token
