You Think That Because My Eyes Are Closed

You think that because my eyes are closed,
I cannot see.
Do not be so sure:
I see.
I see the rules of the game are
                           grossly one-sided,
And fair is fair,
Except when you're black.

You think that because my eyes are closed,
I cannot see.
Do not be so sure:
I see.
I see the rules of the game are
                           finally changing,
And fair will be fair,
Even when you're black.
