Thank you, For Starting It. I'm Sorry, Your Not Here

August 9, 2014

 

He's gone.

He's dead.

POOF

Forgoton

 

Not at all

The people stand 

The people march

We ask for justice

We ask for him not to be forgotton 

 

He took a pack of cigaretts

Only 18 years old

Shoudve let him do his time

Be behind bars instead of cold underground 

Shoudve let him be tried

Let the court rule

 

It was a terrible thing that happened

But now we are united

 

Untited when we march

Together

United when we talk

same words

United when we ask

for justice

 

Police now running free

But his deeds not forgotton

 

He was only 18 years old

Now in a 7 foot hole

6 foot box

1 man decided to shoot 

 

Thank you, for starting a movment

I'm sorry your not here for the change
