WE HOLD THIS TO BE SELF EVIDENT

We the people; we the American people;

We the people of the world’s ethnicities;

We the people who are victims of bad trouble

Continue in the fight to end racial inequalities

That has been around in this country for a long time.

Though we have surpassed Sisyphus and his peers

In their seemingly insurmountable efforts in the climb

And have reached the top in spite of booing cheers,

The struggle to achieved true liberation has yet to be won.

Our efforts to achieve full equality in this, our nation

Still lay waiting to rise up over the towering horizon

And bring to light that which was written in the Declaration.

Let’s not forget that many have died to make this become so;

Let’s not forget that many have died to make a ghost of racism;

Let’s not forget that many have died to make bias a former foe;

The fight continues for the release of equal rights from prison.

Now is the time to rid our nation of all its political hypocrisy;

Now is the time to rid our nation of all its racial disparity;

Now is the time to rid our nation of all its abject bigotry;

Now is the time America, to become a self evident democracy!
