Essence |
by Everett Price |
I am the vision of darkness The color of night Magnified in contrast Inclined to see the light I am the sound of resistance The tune of soulful ears Every note more intense Than a symphony of tears I am the wealth of destitution Of greater value than gold A commodity of revolution Too precious to be sold I am the soul of my ancestors A legacy that will never die In all of my endeavors Spirit is my guide |
