Good Trouble

Protestors may be gassed,
But their truth remains
Bludgeoned blood down dirty drains

Black Lives Matter
White Supremacy cannot win
Inequality is our country’s mortal sin

Racists will pass from this earth
Through blue skies meet the angel’s face
And there be shown no earthly grace

For black equality we’ve waited long
Three hundred years we’ll never forget
Slavery was a crime we will long regret

With soft silken hearts
March for civil rights through Federal rubble
Victims no more we march for good trouble

Political madness
And Government power
Beating on the people who refuse to cower

On a hill of Bronze
Free people will march for what is true
No white flag, only red, white, and blue

Stop the police brutality
Black men gasping for a last breath
We will never justify police racist deaths
