If You Feel You Must

Most people consider
Themselves as not racists
Truly believe in their hearts
That they believe in equality

Yes

This country has come
A long way in establishing
Laws that require equality
And fairness to all 

But how can you tell 
The difference between
A law abiding citizen versus
A law abiding racist?

Just because one respects the law
And follows it down to the last word
Doesn't make that person
A non-racist

They are merely bitter
Law abiding citizens
Tolerant to the stipulations
To stay out of jail

To feel self righteous
Don't fool yourself
Into thinking that you
Are not a racist

No
You are a racist
If you feel you must
Follow the law
