Oppressed

What is it I wonder you don’t want us to see that you don’t want included in the story do you think just because your big smelly marker says permanent ink that it can cover up history Why are you so scared that someone might care about the true version of how the past should be told or how the future might unfold Did you think with a stroke you can cross out the hopes of generations who came and went or maybe prevent those who have yet to dream their dreams Just because you erase the words does not mean we can’t be heard because we can scream louder than you can whine we’ve done it since the beginning of time
