the unseen

proud lady at the stop
carry yourself so well
battle lines in your face
tell the history of your life
you grew up in a time
when your colour was a crime
you saw the voices of freedom
assassinated for their words
you saw your brothers and sisters
swinging from the trees
as you entered the stores thru backdoors
all peoples were free,except in the booth
you werent allowed to vote for your rights
if you wanted to ride
pay your toll,then get yo ass to the back
take a cruise past the church
that took a bomb during the service
what a long hard ride it was
that puts you at the stop today
standing so tall and proud
it's not all perfect within your culture
drugs,gangs, absentee fathers
work against the community of your youth
but here you stand,all the same
knowing when that bus pulls up
you've been to the polls
and can sit wherever you want
