George Floyd

Your name reverberates through the day 
A name engraved in our inside skin 
A name that leaves no scream unheard
A name that turned cries into thunder 

To turn around the tail of a song 
To know the beginning isn’t over yet
And the many wounded by history and present 
Amplified in their rage for justice 

Hate had come dressed in rags and feathers
As injustice never left the scene 
But intoxicated the surrounding air 
And now the time has arrived 
To dismarm racism for once and all

George Floyd, your name shall be spoken 
Your name shall reverberate through the day 
A name engraved in our inside skin 
A name that leaves no scream unheard 
A name that turned cries into thunder
