(We're all fighting to achieve the same "american dream"
and even still to be free
free from others criticism but more so ourselves
for we enslave our minds more than anyone else.

Martin had a dream, half accomplished
Brown had a goal, he wasn't able to sustain the shot
{Parks had a seat, she wouldn't give up
Tubman was the light through the tunnel of the underground railroad

those were warriors of impact
whom decided to "move up" the right way
the kinda up you see when balloons get filled with helium and are released into the thin air
with a string attached to our common grounds & morality.
