Free Hong Kong
Air-ball, foul, listen to the referee
No free throw from the key
Sit in this corner for time out
Check by your names and throw a pout
Hopscotch, Tik Tok
Social media around the clock
For freedom of press
For freedom to express
but there is a distress
And we both are in need
Yell and shout for liberty
But here currently
The support is for the company
From bailouts to sell outs
So “shut up and dribble”
Give me something to nibble
Like on gold or money
The pooh bear honey
Intake, half baked
From the land of quake
-“Injustice Anywhere
Is A Threat To Justice Everywhere” -MLK
But Lebron don’t care
Hurry up before it is gone
Where do I belong
The pendulum swings
Walk this line
Pass the breath
The test of time
The honey pot
There the spot
Spring of Beijing
Wall street likes
As profits hikes
With a little luck
Won’t get stuck
So where do I belong?
There could be a storm
All is torn
Do you see the vision?
What team are you on?
Make an active decision
A voice
A choice?
But wallets need to get fatter
Once 70 million lives matter
How? Moa
Ban or switch
Twitter or twitch
Live stream
Where is the dream team?
What side am I on?
The east meets the west
Trapped in a nest
Treated as a pest
From a queen
In this game of chess
Gone to a pawn
The regime is wrong
Can I get in a word?
Freedom for Hong Kong
We need a superman
Or do we just need to be an NBA fan
Or rather stick our heads into the sand
Do we declare war on plastic straws?
Yet it is getting to hard to breath
Too much traffic in the yellow sea
Support Hong Kong democracy
And Taiwan too.
And and and.... all of china becoming democracy
