“I adore Chicago. It is the pulse of America.” – Sarah Bernhardt
The pulse is weakening. It seems hopeless. We cannot stem this tide of violence, perpetrated by American youth who feel no hope, and covet no life. Cities across this country are experiencing this almost unprecedented violent uprising, but nowhere is it more evident than in the Second City. People are dying. Children are lost. We pray for salvation, we pray for solutions. We shed tears, as we catch a glimpse of what death and desolation can bring. We must never forget what we are losing. We are losing the war for our future. We are losing our soul.
Life and death law around us
Four pounds and pounds a verb from out of towners
It’s hard to stay grounded
We stay high, thats why old folks down us
Lost, nobody found us, the force that surrounds us
Ain’t with us, they get us on the ground and hit us
We paint pictures of the chains under their names and scriptures
Removed from earth, only to return through birth…
