Power To the People

Power to the people ???? By Lady Arabella What do you do when you know somethings not right? Where does your response take you is it fight or flight? Do you stand your ground or just walk away? Allow tomorrow to just be the same or make a path for a new way? Do you stand tall and make sure the voice of those left behind remains heard Do you battle and challenge decisions made that are so obscured Or do you stay silent due to fear of repercussions If not you who else will have those discussions ? Even though when you raise your head you still remain unheard At least you stood up and spread the word You see .. To be an advocate is something so profound As sometimes others stand by and don’t make a sound But you’ve got to stand up in order to be heard Hold those accountable for their choices even if your voice is discouraged and deterred Without people who stand up and fight for what’s right There’s no way when dawn breaks it casts new light So don’t be afraid to speak and not let those above divide the truth Gone are the days of “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. look into justice's beautiful face, balance the scales and remind them it’s time to balance out the power Stand up don’t sit down ..Speak louder let them know you will not hide and cower
