baby, don’t cry.
you’ll be alright.
I know right now, you’re terrified.
I know that you’ve found the best place to hide.
you live in a place where guns equal power,
and where laws don’t protect you so you’re forced to cower.
gunshots fire and you can’t tell if they’re near.
the only thing you’re sure of is irrefutable fear.
you hold your breath, frozen in place.
all you want is to feel safe.
tears trickle down your innocent face.
you question whether or not you’ll make it out alive.
well, baby, don’t cry.
no matter what happens, we’ll continue to fight for your life.
Something HAS to be done. More voices, our words need to be heard, seen... We can be the ones to help contribute the means to keep this from happening.
