can’t find no ammunition
Are people prepping for a war?
Ammendment 2 is on a mission
Droplets, masks, and distancing,
supplies of sanitizer
Go 10, 15, be wiser
Essential workers, thanks for being
infections waiting to happen
How’d we end up here, you ask?
Virus caught us hella-nappin’
Big props to those of you
who responded to your calling
Comfort, strength & hugs
to the loved ones of the fallen
We the people reached a tipping point
exploding in total rage
Looking back, you have to ask
have we ever been on the same page?
As witnesses to the possible
We were jolted out of complacency
and could no longer avoid
coming to terms with ourselves
and the systems we designed
to give advantage to some of us
and leave some of us behind
Fear of loss is the reason
some are married to this system
holding tight to privilege
and clenching us versus them
To act as if all is well
while oppression takes it's toll
was not an option for some of us
who decided to save the soul
of this country and ourselves
and the hope we hold so dear
that justice like a mighty stream
will water down the fear
We united around the country
and came together around the world
We hit the streets for justice with
But polar-eyes see blue versus red
the same as south versus north
Makes it hard to imagine a calm and peaceful
We control the narrative
now more than it’s ever been
A habit forms in 30 days,
each day’s practice syncs it in
So, before you say it, ask yourself,
“Am I saying this to build him up?”
Before you do it, self reflect,
“Am I doing this to fill her cup?”
Say “Thank You” and really mean it
every morning as you wake up
Ask “What’s my purpose?”
till you no longer have to make up
reasons why you hate yourself.
Then live on purpose, don’t break up
commit to let love take us up
to a better YOU-SA
learning to love all of itself.
Can I count on you to practice this
for 30 days and then
You’ll speak love, do love, live love
and that’s the only way we’ll win!
So since we've tried so many things
including all the stuff above
We need more power to unify
so I ask you "How Bout Love"
Join us on this journey to a better America
Be inspired and reminded to create a more perfect union
