king of the damned

As I search for the place where my joy may reside I search for the purpose...for what should have been my pride has now become my burden ...
My color my character and all that I am instead of leading me into prosperity it has made me king of the damned
Now living as a sanctuary for pain even the air around me hurts so I accept my position and mingle amongst the cursed
Struggling with the rules of life has impeded my happiness change is the only thing constant other than these endless tragedies
Trying to atone for my wrong and pursue a new life reconcile with the crowd and and choose a new light all the while be pleasing in our fathers sight BT what if I have to sin in order to make things right?
Should I have to change my color my character and all that I am to soothe the ego's of my oppressors and please all of there friends
To be who they want me to be,all I have to do,is change everything about me!!!
Learn to laugh and smile rather than clench my jaws apply cheerful candor to the topics they choose to dialogue.
So what's the price of forgiveness?what's the cost of understanding?is it a broken spiritor society's banning what more is a man other than his color his content and his character to Betray man of these dignities is to betray liberty
