Juneteenth

On this day in 1865 was the day 
That the slaves were freed 
It was out to an end 
And our lives sort of 
Started to begin 
Begin to make sense 
We became more 
Than just workers 
We became nutururers 
To our own 
No longer had to feel owned 
Or to be told what to do 
Like back in the day 
With sojourner truth 
We always stood for something 
As so did Harriet Tubman 
She stood for us 
Now we stand for her 
No matter what may occur 
We are living in a wicked world 
All we have is each other
This world should have never been split 
Or separated by color 
The color black 
Is major 
It's dark 
But when you add all the ingredients
It's the perfect part 
It stands out 
Have its own mind
We don't wait , can't waste no more time 
We celebrate black excellence 
So many paved the way 
They made a bill 
We have our own day 
To celebrate 
Appreciate
Work hard 
Dedicate 
Look at us , look at our future 
We have became entrepreneurs
Look at whatat we hold 
It feels good to have control 
Control of my destiny 
Don't care if others think less of me 
I am what others wish they could be 
Be understood 
Through the bad 
And the good 
Sweat and tears 
Tears and sweat 
Feeling it 
The neglect 
Still trying 
To inspire 
You can do anything 
Your heart desire
Here you go 
Light the fire 
Never let the flame burn 
Work hard 
Everything given to you shall be earned 
I love to see 
Us all in unity 
Even if we fall 
We can all stand 
No matter what color 
Hold each other hand 
No matter what we face 
We are a part of a human race 
June teenth 
The teenth of June
We will blossom 
We will bloom 
Into something awesome 
Very soon
And all that I will say 
Is we will be great someday
Names speak volume 
Volume in our name 
Let's be a part of change 
Change minds 
Change hearts 
Do our thing 
Play our part 
Keep God in it 
Keep him first 
He will help us through better or worse 
Our doctors, lawyers ,teachers and friends
Thank you for setting the trend 
Tyler Perry , Oprah , Whoopi Goldberg
Thanks for letting visions and stories be heard
Giving people a chance 
Who say they couldn't 
But you proved they can 
It's so many to name 
Thank you all for being a part of change 
I feel like I covered what needs to be complete 
Happy Juneteenth
