Over all of the pain and sorrow

We will overcome

We have to stay strong and believe that the world can be altered

Once in a while things will get tough, but we have to stand tall and be judicious

We can overcome all obstacles that we face

We need to come together as brothers and sisters and stop killing and fighting each other

Once done, we will notice that the world will begin to evolve around us

We are Kings and Queens

They remove that from our heads and hand us guns

If we constantly keep saying BLACKLIVESMATTER

We have to mean it

If we don’t, they think they have a right to kill us too

Stand tall and be wise my brothers and sisters

Black Power will spread when we stand together.
