Rayne (Midnight)

"We need Midnight to be ready to go on. They're on in five," a PA said. 

With that, all of us took our places in the wings by the stage. Even though we were amped for our first concert, I was worried about Lucy. Ever since the camp trip, she had been done in the dumps so to speak. Since I was helping Niel with his dad's death, I hadn't had much time to talk to her. My mind wondered what could have possibly happened to make her like that. But I didn't have long because the concert was about to start. With the stage lights off, we ran out onto the stage. Since we'd be active in our next songs, the just decided to go with the mic that was completely hands-free. And being that we didn't have much time, all of us were dressed for the next songs we'd be doing. 

"When the last child cries for a crust of bread,

When the last man dies for just words that he said,

When there's shelter over the poorest head, 

We shall be free," Aaron sang while the lights slowly came up behind us to silhouette us. 

This was Rose's cue. "When the last thing we notice is the color of skin,

And the first thing we look for is the beauty within,

When the skies and the oceans are clean again,

Then we shall be free."

Then came all of us. "We shall be free,

We shall be free,

So stand straight, 

Walk proud, 

'Cause we shall be free."

Lucy. "When we're free to love anyone we choose,

When this worlds big enough for all different views,

When we're all free to worship from our own kind of pew,

Then we shall be free."

Hunter and Keith. "We shall be free,

We shall be free,

Have a little faith,

Hold out,

'Cause we shall be free."

Lynn and I. "And when mornin' talks for the very last time,

And nobody walks a step behind,

When there's only one race and that's mankind,

Then we shall be free,


We shall be free,

Listen to what I'm saying to you,

We shall be free,

Cause every night and day I pray it's true,

Together,

Forever,

We shall be free."

All. "We shall be free,

We shall be free,

Stand straight,

Have a little faith,

Walk proud, 

Hold out,


We shall be free, 

Listen to what I'm sayin' to you,
