Miss Sad Bird’s love song
Rings bells unheard

Miss Sad Bird’s love song
Sings unspoken words.

Simplicity redefines traveled paths that lead to nowhere
Insightful maps reflect in wide eyes where treasures are declared
Prevailing regimes institutionalize ideas rebirthed
Prejudices suppressed in bloody soil are unearthed.

New times bring about old changes redeemed
The retro perspective becomes the ideology of modern esteem
When oppressed visions are interpreted statutes are modified
The revolution of a million men needs to be revolutionized.

Insurgent uprising repeats segregation’s mutiny
Rebellion’s justified leader hanged under Justice’s blind eye of scrutiny
Political wars to maintain control do not care which party leads the conglomerate
The unyielding lack of pigmentation governs the requirement to dominate.

If you failed to understand the message that Miss Sad Bird’s love song contained
Let me take a minute to impose upon you the significance which its meaning refrained
See Miss Sad Bird’s song resounded political questions
Which go unheard in our own sabbatical of confessions
Are we supposed to believe in change when a minority ruling is mentioned?
The reality of the world we live in gets lost in hope’s center of detention
The prejudices of yesterday remain dormant in tomorrow
But executive appointments on the horizon are awakening racist sorrows
Yet belief in the impossible is mandatory for the impossible to occur
So our faith in change must not waiver when democratic besiegement should disperse
Pallid democrats and republicans certainly know when to unite
To maintain life, liberty and justice as constituted, due process will fight the white fight
Yet three-fifths of one man’s rights will necessarily be compromised
Following a great King, his life, liberty and justice will suffer upon the manifestation of equality’s demise.
Optimistic outlooks present pigmented presidential ideals
That puts melanin in the oval office of a White House where civil rights was repealed
The bottom line forces you to realize where your vote actually stands
Is the land where freedom rings really ready to handle a black president’s demands?
