Aware and Rising

Post by Gypsie Biyinzika »

"Aware and Rising"

With eyes wide open, you see the light
A world of injustices, a fight to ignite
You stand for the marginalized and oppressed
A voice for the voiceless, your heart is blessed

Your mind is awake, no longer asleep
To the systems of power, the lies they keep
You question the norms, the status quo
Seeking truth and justice, as your spirit grows

You walk with empathy, compassion in tow
A ally to the silenced, your heart aglow
You use your privilege, to amplify the call
For equality and freedom, standing tall

With every step, you rise above the pain
A beacon of hope, in a world that's stained
By hate and division, you choose to resist
A force for love and unity, your spirit insists

Your wokeness is strength, a guiding light
In the darkness, you shine so bright
Keep rising, keep speaking, keep standing tall
A true warrior for justice, you stand after all.
