Tonight I Weep
For the Fallen Citizens of 2016
Tonight I weep
For the fallen 2
For the fallen 5
For the fallen 75—make that 83
Tonight I weep
For those who lost their lives for being who they are
For those who can't come home to their families anymore
Tonight I weep
For the young people who went to a nightclub to be free
For the black men who did nothing wrong and are still forced into a grave too soon
Tonight I weep
For the children who no longer have their mom, dad, sister, brother
For the policemen who stand to protect but instead gets gunned down from the skies
Tonight I weep
For France, this is not the 1st time for France but the second.
For all those bodies littered in the streets with blood stains still caressing their broken bodies
I can't weep
My eyes stay wet because I know there will be another, and another and another
This is the time to look at the skies
And pray
Pray for the fallen 2
For the fallen 5
For the fallen 75—make that 83
Pray for the children with no mother no father
If we don't then we will continue to weep
