Here we are, another generation
all wanting to make a change.
Learning from our mother and father the difference between right and wrong
But then there comes a point in our lives
When we form our own opinions and views
Our views on politics, school, or life
We grow up in places that are diverse
Filled with all colors,
The suburbs, the cities, the country
Brimming with people of different religions, genders and sexualities
People that stand up for their rights
Where being gay or transgender is acceptable
Where you are respected if you are Muslim or Atheist
Where women are not just an object
We are just teens and children who want equality.
But here we are again trying our hardest to fight back but are always put down.
We are put down by haters and fakers
People who disagree, and find a way to twist our views
We are knocked down by the people who try to seal our success,
People who take credit for our accomplishments
But we know that we have to stick together.
Today we fill cities with seas of pink
Posters rise up with words of empowerment
Spending hours walking, marching and chanting for a reason
These People don't just fight for women
But for everyone
Now we all link arms and join in unity to express our thoughts.
Our thoughts on love, unity, and happiness
