My freedom
Your Freedom
Our freedom of speech, of power, of choice
right to live, right to choose, right to question,
who gives us the power "Our God" who's God
I have no belief in god but i watch his brutality what are we learning?
tired, scared, trying to be open, giving eqaul.
who is eqaul
who is free
who is blameless.
not we.
so much pain so much terror
responsibility falls ???????????
back to us the individual to stand
make a choice, be heard be loud take a chance
brutality
being born pale
with a coloured heart
mine is multi coloured my choice would be pink , blue or purple but i'm white
and i watch the brutality
that breaks my heart and bruises my soul.
pain i have felt pain
but i have no inkling of brutal pain, who does
aaahhhh our native indiginous people around the world, they feel the pain.
aboriginal, native american, native african
the stolen people, the stolen slave. my multi coloured heart is feeling your pain
and i am ashamed
