Unfurled
Fighting for political and economic equality is hard I'm facing federal incarceration for simply being a bard I fear not the isolation or the metal bars
I fear that things will not change under the stars
I speak truth to power in hopes that things will change The government wants to use my picture
in their firing range
Rebellion and civil disobedience are the tactics
for a better life
While I'm busy organizing protests,
they're sharpening the knife
Violence is their only tool and it doesn't work very well All it does is put people through a government aided hell We can overcome their ways if we utilize peace
in this venture I will never cease
They are only set up to deal with rage filled assault They are paid off and set up,
make no mistake it isn't their fault
Gandhi said "Be the change you want to see in the world"
Let us become revolutionaries;
Ships with our sails unfurled,
With our backs to the wind
we can withstand this political hurricane …
Non-violent protest is the tool, it is the authoritarian's bane.
