Protest, protest

Protesting must be kept alive

Though the government does not like it,

The people telling them what they want

But why should we care just what they think,

We have the right to freedom of speech

As well as the right to be seen,

Unless it’s based and rooted in violence

Which we know is the way of the police

When they infiltrate to cause a riot,

But it’s essential we make a noise

And don’t be made to be silent and quiet,

Protest, protest when rights and people are oppressed

When wrongful laws fail to impress,

Protest is what can cause change

No silent passive acts through being afraid.
