I will not be quiet

I have problems existing in silence

I don't know that I can keep this quiet

I have yet to see an enemy who's yet to see

the light in me, the right in me

And soon I fear they will have to see the fight in me

I have yet to feel free

the atrocity that is free speech has yet to extend itself to me

I cannot believe that you cannot see the tricks they disguise in a media piece

the deaths of many we constantly see

yet you want to pray and desire to increase the peace

I don't call myself a warrior but I've never been blind

all I see surrounding me are traps designed to take what's mine

you see there can be no peace in the communities

not when you creep to keep all we seek from beyond our reach

I don't want this to be yet another speech

talking about goals and things that at this time we cannot achieve

there is no worse form of breach than to have you steal my color from me

so now I see that soon we may be across the street

eyeing each other

and that we may have to be prepared to take the life of another

because I will kill you before I let you take another brother.
