Miners (inspired by Bilal)

I question how the world could be fixated on the rescue of "coal miners" yet turn a cold shoulder to "inner city minors",
The school system claims that NO CHILD IS LEFT BEHIND!,
Then why are my peers the ones left in the mine!
Are we not worth the time?
Or is it like this by design?
We hail from the poorest neighborhoods-with the poorest schools-and receive a second rate education!,
If you ask me-not much has changed since segregation,
Change has been a long time coming like shit after constipation,
But change has come far and few in between yet we settle for the constellation...prize!
Living as second class citizens in a nation our ancestors built!!!
