We

We lined up Despite the hangman's call We lined up Even when protesting seemed to not help at all We stood up Backed by God's promises to men of this land We stood up Because after you have done all, you still stand We sat in As people threw food condescendingly We sat in And were arrested repeatedly We remained united All of us in civil disobedience We remained united And endured in peaceful silence We gained equality An innate right of God's children We gained equality Not judged by the color of our skin
