Tall and beautiful
green and brown
some are even on the ground
see them sitting there
dead and not free
I wish that, that was even me
so I sat beside them all
knowing that i wasn't quite as tall
but as I thought about my freedom and rights
I got up and walked away and remembered the fights
remembered all that we went through
remembered we saw no blue
for as the sky was filled with smoke
remembering it was no joke
bleeding, shooting, loud, loud wars
finding weapons to open doors
just for us to have our freedom
I'm glad i have and still to come
years and years of pure freedom.
