Head Up

We need a touch of inspiration, To lighten our pain and frustration. Despite the sacrifices and amendments, America remains mad and against us. With the entire country on lockdown, It seems impossible not to feel down. It’s hard for us to keep our head up, When worldly issues continue to pile up. Everyone is on edge and extremely sensitive, An eruption could occur at the drop of a pen. Race, injustice, and corruption are the triggers, The black and blue bullets are the driving killer. An awakened volcano is not a pretty sight, Any moment it may start yelling at the sky. Surely people are on the verge of blowing up, It’s a challenging time to keep our head up.
