The Honorable, The King, The Inspiration
The Lost, The Forgotten, The Unheard of
A man who made such an outcry
To be reduced into such a small whisper.

A man who banded together millions of people,
Who all had one goal in mind; “To Let Freedom Ring”,
A man who should be as known and respected as Martin Luther King.

The Perfection of Pan-Africanism,
The Most Known-Unknown,
Who would have thought his words would have shown,
The importance of Africa to the world and me

And for that I give a thank you to,
Mr. Marcus Mosiah Garvey
