Establishment, Empowerment, Heritage
Honor and Pride being appreciative
One’s voice having every right
Movement that can with decisions on when
There were times my theories were blocked
While others tried to mock
Concepts became resolutions
To this day we have educational institutions
I remember a time on when
The enemy was not your friend
It’s a wonder now
The years expired oh wow
A voice often had to think twice
You couldn’t ask a question nor give advice
To gain knowledge was an act being a chore
But you had to be determined in order to explore
It didn’t matter in one being blocked
It didn’t matter if it was a set up being a plot
Achieve it and you will receive it
Be determined and you will have discerned wit
Yes I achieved my legacy
It was that special blend of hard knots
Let my inspiration be your target
Become a commodity on the market
Believe and have confident
Excel but expect
Project and focus horizon vision
Let the legacy rise within
Later, let understanding carry you at the end.
