Usa, It Is Time To Change

"She might be the first to do it, but she sure is not the last!"
The young girls, inspire, aspire
to break the cage, the confinement
to break the cuffs of stigma and rise above.
The black kids who have memorized the path to their daddy's grave
the black kids who tire themselves from rallies for nothing
kissing 'them' goodnight and whispering to the sky "I love you!"
A change for the dim light fall
from the words still choked beneath "I can't breath!"

It is time to change the idle minds
to be the epitome of equality to the people of the world
to be the dream for the blacks, to let the suppressed fantasize
amidst the world of reality!
So USA! It is time to Change!

I believe it is changing, but some people you can never change... Well written.
