A Voice on Wheels


A voice speaks out Her words ring through the world A woman heard across the nation She asks for something as simple as retaining her seat She asks for a desegregated bus and change Is it too hard to ask? For a bus that would transcend lives, and races? A bus with no color boundaries? But nay, this is for a greater cause One that would allow many to rise To rise for rights For Freedoms For Change In the end, a bus leaves the station in 2013 It's wheels move with a sigh The passengers all unite 'Hear Us' 'Hear Us' In the end, all was heard And the voices began to sing. One voice is needed To start a revolution Let all voices unite And sing once more, again
