Endurance, the pain of diligence
Where we were forced into a predicament
When all eyes are uneasy, as if we are not legitimate


They say we cannot cope
But all we can cling onto is hope
That in our heart a fire burns 
And awaits time on its own to turn


So as the wind decides to blow,
The moon directs the sea to roll
In order for the sadness to finally start
To extinguish the gentle beat of my heart


“People!” I call
“If all are to be equal, then why do they stall?
We battle our tears
But it falls far from their ears!


And the reason, though meer,
Is quite direct, but unclear
In order for all to come together,
We must be as transparent as the weather


We look up to the skies for the answer,
But it seems to trickle farther and farther
For our dreams are no different than
Those of the ones who refuse us a hand


But know, a tear will finally fall,
And with that, the light of day will call
A proclamation will reach us
And with that, an emancipation will seek us


So, though we stagger to tremble weak,
Our generation will not stand to be labelled ‘bleak’
For, it matters not the color of our skin
Or how the sky chooses to glow, jumble, or wear thin”


The importance is who we choose to be 
For our life matters, I guarantee
So stand straight and walk with pride
For our life matters, there’s nothing to hide
