In the silence of the night, my voice will rise,
Echoing the truths that can no longer hide,
For in my heart, a fire burns bright,
Fueling the fight for my rights.
The chains that bind are but a fleeting dream,
Shattered by the strength of words unseen,
From the depths of history, I draw my might,
In every struggle, in every fight.
June Jordan’s spirit whispers in my ear,
A testament to the power of love and fear,
Her words a beacon, guiding me through,
In every step, in everything I do.
So here I stand, defiant and proud,
My rights, my voice, strong and loud,
In the light of justice, my truth will shine,
For every right, for every life, divine.
