So now for a long time I’ve made these rhymes

And finally my name is immortal for now, and all times

But still I don’t think you have heard my prayer

Still, I think, my message is blocked, cannot hear

 

So let me say this, open your covered eyes

Look at this world, filled with hate, deception, lies

Sanctuary for the wealthy, nets only for cure

Caught in by the greedy, no longer heavenly pure

 

So my message is simple, just learn to wake up

In this time with no salvation, like silver spoon and cup

And hear me now; open your closed eyes and ears

Why do we exist in this world of death and fears?

 

You all know what I’m saying is true

So my question is, what are you going to do!?

You can’t vote out of this, your rights can’t protect

Just remember and be strong, and never, never, forget!

 

This isn’t the end of the world because I know I won’t die

Simply because, I have a task before my soul flies

I was put here for a reason, so is every one of you

Again, in this time of deception, what are you going to do?!

 

Listen to me now, like you never have before

It is time to act not bow, or learn how to endure

Everyone must be strong, everyone will know my name

It is time to be a lion, no longer collared and tame

 

So will you stand by me finally, and take up the act

Or are you content just to stare and sit back?

Don’t be weak, stand! You are the entirety of the nation

Actng is all we can do to satisfy our salvation

 

No longer will I wonder, no longer will I cry

No longer will I be weak, no longer will I die

I am so tired, so tired, and I can tell you exactly why

It’s because of this world, don’t stop at the sky!

 

So hear my name, because you will hear it a lot more

Take up the cause and start the peaceful war

This is not a time to sit, not a time to die

It is the time to change, the time to occupy!

Such power and dignity within this write, and your traditional word lacing keeps the rhythm flowing. Vonderful job on this, you could write speeches. ~Wolf~

As Jefferson said. Every generation should have a revolution. A revolution is necessary to keep the freedom and rights of the people. The soil of America should always be rich with patriot's blood. I like your poem a lot. Thank you for sharing!
