an amendment of a nation
our nation is strong but within the constitutionality of the
lives
that congress pretends arent being taken
there is a revolution brewing and the kids are taking a stand.
this is our chance to make a change
the children standing up and marching because prayers and opression by the
people
our states voted in will not silence us
we stand as one and we will scream their names into the heavens
the lives lost this year alone
58 massacres
its barely been four months.
we stand for amendment
an amendment to a nation
an amendment where our voices will be heard because
im just a kid
but im not a kid
im a victim
im a target
im the name that,
when im shot down in my algebra class
politicians wont even remember.
im the teacher who took a bullet for the valedictorian
im the twitter handle whos selfies will be the only evidence that i ever existed
im the grave the politicians will not visit
im the bulletholes the doctor couldnt make stop bleeding in time
So no, im not a kid
i am an amendment and a sacrifice
i am the future
i am one of the voices who will scream until violence
ends in action and not prayers
i am the end of a century of opression and murder and hate
i dont get to be a kid
i get to stand up
i get to scream
i get to vote, and i will vote, and i will vote the opressors out
I am here and this isnt the end
i am here and i am an amendment to a nation of death
