Mockingbird

Red water blue shadow Flags force the pretense Of pride in the hallow It's in the shallow Black water no ground Worms own the crown Protest against protest I'm the black swan We won't be silent The smoke screens dissolving From the winds of our voices Gas is your weapon But our hearts carry fire Asserting your power Streets marked by flowers Bad seeds too common Human life's your target We won't be silent Mockingbird dissipate from the heard You're the bane of the voices The oppressor the curse In your corner you cower Accountable for nothing I want a better future
