We need to stand up.
Put our hands up and march.
My skin shouldn't threaten your existence.
I am who I am and I can't change it.
While you look at my face with so much hatred.

It's time to stand up for equality.
We're trying to get this money on the land and the free.
This country could've fooled me.
Free for who?!

We are standing up for our brothers and sisters who died of ignorance.
People who don't wanna understand us.
They just want to fight us and beat us.
Belittle us.

Immortal bodies roaming around for more prey.
Standing up for our ancestors who fought for our rights.
We are not just marching.
We are creating a movement.
To stand up to our freedom.

We deserve respect.
Not to be neglected.
Our march, our movement will only get bigger.
If we come together and stop trying to overlook the problem.

We are standing up for everything!
We will not be silenced!
You can only kill so many of us until we have an uproar.
We must fight!
No more laying back!

We want straight facts.
No more lies!
Everyday is gonna be a fight until the end.
Black is beautiful, but our justice is so ugly.
Nothing is guaranteed, so we must fight.

Fight for black lives because they do matter.





















So much is happening right now it's ridiculous. This country is in shambles.
Everything is just falling apart. Riots are getting out of control. People really forgot what we are fighting for. Also it saddens me that another black man, another black sister is the victims of ignorance. It hurts so much.
That's why instead of beating each other up, we need to stand up. This time in our lives, we need more people to join the movement. This is our march. It's time for us to stand up!!!!!

I hope everyone is safe and making smart choices. Stay black and beautiful.😇
