Hangman

they felt like it was my time to rise
hovering like 5 feet above the dandelions
I'm the talk of the town
the center of attention
you cant go nowhere without hearing my mention
serving in my treeside detention
this is the white-woman-got-raped-not-really prevention
damn i shoulda listened
there is no such thing as a white woman consentin
to a black man
i swing i sway
i can see the river where i will lay
i...pray to god, i pray
the named a game for me
nowadays the games kids play
they said it was my time to rise
he said "tighten the rope
time to meet your hangman demise"
