God's Tune (In honor of Juneteenth)
Tarnished street corners.
Hearts Shattered.
Black bodies scattered.
Smoke in the air.
History repeated.
Will they ever care.
Their heroes are villians.
Neglecting our children.
Faces in the dirt.
Blood smeared on their shirts.
This day we break the mental chains.
This day they'll understand the pain.
Every 19th of June.
Fists in the air.
Singing God's tune.
