Change...Is Good

Time brings along a change, & change brings along a time.
A Black Man ran for President, an he won.
This is an  historical time.

One hundred & forthy four years have pass since our bondage & chains.
A brother with a swagger & eloquently spoken, embrace his name.

Barack Obama...Barack Obama, say it with confidence.
Barack Obama!...Barack Obama!, a name that can inspire our kids.

With an assurance: that through education with determination
anything & everything is possible.
Put their faith in God first an they can...accomplish...the illogical.

With the ability to dare to dream.
Forthy five years ago a Great Man had a theme.
An it begins with: "I have a dream."

With this said: change is good no matter the how.
My Black People I want ya'll to stand, cuz we have Change,
so please take a bow.
Change...is Good.
