Oh Rosa, Born Rosa Mcauley ended Rosa Parks.
Oh Rosa, Born Strong and Left her Mark.
From a Segregated school you know she wanted to break the rules.
On December 1, 1955, Freedom was Scarce, and needed to thrive.
Civil Rights Pioneer not at loss for words just loss of her fears.
Rosa was on the bus home and doing just fine.
Too many people got on and the bus driver moved the sign.
Of course the story goes that Rosa was asked to move
For the sake of civil rights thank god she disapproved.
Rosa was taken off the bus and put under arrest, which she calmly did not protest.
Oh Rosa, Charged with Violation of Chapter 6, section Eleven but she made a huge difference before her assention into Heaven.
Thank you Rosa for your Dedication to Freedom, i pray that one day we will make equality our Kingdom.
