Pit Bull’s Song
My heart breaks
When I think of you dear friend
For you are not aware
Of our cruelty
Our ignorance
Our Bias
Our shameful acts at the behest of fear
You know not
Our harsh prejudgment
You know not
The stripping of your rights
You know not
That we have coined you a monster
Or how easily we take your life
We have bound you in stereotype’s Deception
We have shackled you with faulty evidence
And unreliable testimony
We have confused your truth
With media’s fiction
And we have silenced the true facts of your nature
With brainwashed opinion
Some of us have
Warped your personality and character
With malicious intent
But for those of us
Who truly know you
We recognize you
As man’s best friend
For you display
An unconditional love
An energetic spirit
A heart as pure as gold
You embody the innocence of a child
And you are a loyal companion
We do not deserve
My heart breaks
When I think of you dear friend
For outside your destiny is cold
I wish I could shatter their prism of lies
And bring out
The truth of your breed
I wish I could get them to understand
Blame the Owner
Not the Breed
‘Till then I shall remain
Right here
By your side
My American
Pit Bull Terrier
