Picnic Etymology

If I pushed pride aside it would be suicide instead of homicide.

All for the purposes of stripping me of my Black pride.

Well guess what?

I won't run and hide because I have the strong will and every intention to thrive.

I utilize my enemy's every act, every word, and every deed as fuel for my needs, so I am begging please,

Next time you wanna picnic, trust me, you don't wanna pick me.
