Say Their Names π
Rain begins to pour on the chaos below. One thing is for certain; you are not born with the hate which engulfs you, preventing you to grow. Like the trees which are long since rooted, you too cannot move If you do not seek the answers within, Humanity? Your sanity? This you will surely lose. It pulls you under the crashing waves, thrashing and dancing Oh, but why can't you change? Open your mind. Break down its dams. Let the flood gates open. Reach out your hand. Just like King, I have a dream And the flowers bloom, the church bells boom. Why is there so much unrest? What does it matter if their skin colour Is different from the rest? Amongst the beaten, worn down cliffs, The lifeless lives live on in the chant, "Say their names." Fight for what is right. Your heart knows, deep within, do not conform. Do not give in. The purple sky and the defiant eyes and the ticking of the clock: it strikes at noon. Why must He leave his white palace of lies.
