Liberation

Search deep in your cranium into the grey matter

release the thoughts and ideas you've had over the years

Liberate

A controversial thought that people have fought and fought all the way to the top of the mountain

Heads of this confused nation have placed the constraints and restraints designed to hold us back

Attack the notion that norm is norm and fashion is fashionable

Liberation is regardless of the consequence of your action

Factions exist to take the think out of thinking

You're left with ING

HopING, wishING, prayING for the next leader to come save your wellbeING

SingING the old song of I can't

They have captivated your mind and stolen your time with sophisticated technology

TV and mp3, MTV and BET,

Repetitive subliminal messages of how to act and how to dress

Fictional rap wars between east and west

Reality tv thats so far from the truth and liberating music negatively influencing our youth

Liberation is Martin and Malcolm screaming uplifting verbiage

The wise words they quoted and the measure of their courage

Liberation is marching on Washington with a dream of many colors and sitting on buses and refusing to move any further

Liberation is sitting in the class implementing knowledge that benefit your peers and open the ears of the bias, racist, sexist media

Liberation is wearing what they don't and going against the grain leaving a stain on the face of the machine

Liberation is chanting in one loud voice and not going silently into the night

Liberation is new ideas when the old ones don't work

It's the hammer banging the nail through the walls of captivity to a new role of relativity

Relative to me you and all who live and breathe to achieve

Liberation is freeing your mind and thinking outside the box

Not chained to one concept but breaking those locks

Liberation is women voting and me finally equaling a whole man

Equal representation now thats Liberation!
