Once a shadow on a wall dreams to weak to call wishing with a fleeting spark sitting silently between light and dark with tides that pulled and storms that raged I shed skin where we were new from fragile forms to something new we rose like the sun from a midnight blue When no fear remains I dance above on Earth's refrain ...

My pen is mourning the agonies and the sufferings Of my people, who are drowning in the sea of misery. My keyboard' strokes are shadowing the slow rhythms Of the wandering beggar, who's lost in the sanctuary.

Keep caramel hope in your sweet heart Let it guide you despite days so dark The Statue of Liberty may shed a tear But we shall not be moved from here Salty smiles vile white wicked words Try to knock down what you heard Content of chocolate character on display Never mind the hate be you you’re great If you weren’t why...

They teach us to stand and pledge with our hearts. Pledge to the nation whose heart is for all. They say one nation, does that include me? The little black girl living on the sketchy street? Year after year, thousands still hope the nation they root for will offer some hope. Land of the free, does that include me? The...
