Race Card Driver

No time for pit-stops now
I'm on the final lap to glory
I can't fight City Hall,
but I can easily weave
my way around loop holes

Racial equality is not beneficial
to the status quo bureaucracy

Downshift
(I can't be racist if everyone else is, too)
Evade
(As long as I ignore it, it will go away)
Maneuver
(I cannot admit when I'm wrong in public)

Yellow lights flash harshly
No cop, no stop
No time to think
Play the race card, pronto!

"How dare you treat me this way!
I will sue you for discrimination!
I'm an American, damn it!
I have a Green Card!
You are powerless against my
mixed message media onslaught!"

Setting the cruise control to middle class
Another hollow victory beats losing it all
The finish line has been crossed
and double-crossed again
I can't fight impending progress,
but I can clear the road of obstructions
from my
point of view
