Black lives matter equals preach, preach, preach.

          We come together as one and we eat, eat, eat.

Martin Luther King had a dream and so did we.

          Malcolm X died without letting us know

What’s next, Black History Month can’t settle for less!

          Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat now

Look at Spike Lee. When it rains it pours but only 

          Some people feel the rain; others just get wet 

Without knowing what’s next. History has shown us 

          That you can have courage and it may be contagious.

Knowing where you’re from is important and also dangerous

          “Colored People” never win. It’s funny how

Black History Month is one of the shortest months

          And that just isn’t enough. We want to be 

          Remembered as he/she tried!

          It’s not enough of soul ties. If your dreams don’t scare you

          They aren’t big enough. Stand tall

          With your chest poked out and smile.

          Education is the most powerful weapon you can have 

So don’t let anything or anyone take that away, Tomorrow is on a day 

          After today. 

               The tears, The pain, and the scars I’m never ashamed!

               Change will not come if we wait, it’s only February 2020

          And it’s so much pain. So let go and let God give us 

               Rain Today.
