Stand up and be counted fr what you believe, but use the right venue. don't be foolish, stupid and ignorant.
Take a Knee By Franklin Price 9/28/2017 Take a knee to praise the Lord Not for discord, we can't afford Not in the venue of your work Play football there, don't be a jerk Don't use the flag to have your say That's not, at all, the American way That's not the way you should connect When you're protesting disrespect If you want the world to change And think police should rearrange Contribute your excessive pay To help things turn the other way To take a knee and end it there Does nothing to make others care You've used the flag that lets you play I just have one more thing to say If you want to end this plight Then use your money to fight the fight End disrespect that's more than crass If you continue, kiss my ass If you have read this and agree Send it to your friends for me Then get down on your bended knee Pray for change, in the bad we see
