Speak Up


Speak up nobody heard you

when you voice your opinion people just curve you

what you think is right is right 

dont give up without putting up a fight

i wish i could end proverty 

i wish the homeless was able to own their own properties 

i wish everybody had equal rights 

i wish people didnt get scared when they see police lights

why do we feel rejected instead of protected?

when they shoot to kill do they think of who's being affected ?

all these kids being neglected instead of being corrected

what can we do to change ? 

i dont want to live in a world that people call strange.
