Liberty Rising
Beneath the roar of rhetoric tossed
Bellowing in waves of stripes lost
I can hear a song of hope
Surviving among the trope
50 to one we resist this star
Hand in hand united we are
And with blindfold, balance, and sword
We shall resend all accord
For days numbered are upon
What hate did spawn
And in light, darkness shall pass
Bringing to heel what was once crass
Ending the spread of petulance
With innocence, valor, and vigilance
