Dying to let freedom ring
The syncopated pitter-patter of the meek
Set to a cacophony of J. B.'s funky "HIT ME!"
Going upside heads of state oops:
Nail in the coffin ~ on the 1
Katrina, laid to rest
Not with 21 guns
But rather,
With a spiritual fortitude
Reserved for kings
Mourning our own...
Presiding over the sting of death
Jubilant over Black resilience
SAY IT LOUD
