Revolution
The people started marching
they came from every where
Armed with words of freedom
Revolution in the air
They joined in every corner
across their precious land
The time had come, they all agreed
they had to take a stand
The country was divided
and teetered on the edge
Of losing its democracy
Betraying its own pledge
It used to be a beacon
an oasis in the sand
Desired by so many
Its shores a freedom land
But tyranny had taken hold
At stake, democracy
People knew intangibles
never come for free
And so, from many, one
The time was here, it was the hour
They came to show the world
The people always have the power
