I Should Be In Dc
I can’t sleep
I should be in DC
I can’t close my eyes
I should be among their rallying cries
I can’t rest my head
I should be marching there, with them
I should be beside the chains and gates
By the pepper spray and mace
By the ones taken away
By the students and the nurses
By drivers, servants, poor and workers
Where anger and hope lay wake
something’s being born today
I can’t sleep
I should be in DC
