The crowd gathered round
To watch a fantastic show
The cheers where loud; So Loud
They clapped they grinned
It was a fantastic crowd
As the entertainer took is stand
Blind folded; Sweat down his cheeks
The clapping and cheering stopped
Now the audience stared; Staring
"Daddy Daddy!" His head dropped
A smile appeared across his face
Like he could see threw the blind
Audience waiting for the act
Waiting; Staring; Waiting;
Sister started to clap; Clap; Clap
A string tied around
All eyes fell upon him;Only him
My eyes watering; From the breeze
He talk a walk to the center
Mother took my hand and gave a squeeze
A photo from the back was took
Silence rippled threw the air
His words spoke aloud; Aloud
'I do this for my family'
Eyes on; Gasps from the hollow crowd
The sweat is pouring of his face;
He disappears; Hes not there
The rope is pulling; Hard; fast
It stops; Stopped; Hes gone
After a few minutes had past
The crowd cleared;
Fathers face had gone; The sweat
Where tears of fear; Hes gone
His act was to show the truth
He was innocent; But now hes gone
The act was done; Over; Finished
My father stood for his rights
His skin was black; But his heart was red
Dad stood innocent with that noose round his neck
Now my Fathers..... Dead
