Say Their Name no matter how long it's been.

Not for the tag, mention, nor fame.

Just say their name.

I'm screaming out for Yahweh.

They kill us - We kill us.

It's time for a new day.

I have hope for Justice.

BLM we need a Blue Jay.

Let's talk about

Black on Black Crime;

Public Education;

Public Transportation;

Public Health Care;

Be aware of Food Insecurity.

Not overseas, but right here in our country.

We battle poverty, bottles, and needles.

There's blood on the streets.

Blue Gun plus Black Man equals Blood on the Seats.

They're getting out of hand.

We're gettin outta pocket.

This vicious cycle must end.

Let's be willing to stop it.
