I am

I am the elephant in the room

I am the skeleton

you trapped in your closet

Out on full display

I am the sound people hear

When freedom rings

And spread its deterrent ruffled angel wings

I am the truth people try to avoid

I am the reason they wear masks

(For I am the whispers of the guilty

And the silent cries of the innocent)

I am the sunlight driving out

the darkness of the night

I am the hope the hopeless cling on to

for dear life so they can get out of bed

I am the ever fading dreams of the poor

I am the Justice the wronged searches for

I am who people go to

when they have no where else to go

and have lost everything they hold dear

I am the elephant in the room

I am the skeleton

you trapped in your closet

Out on full display

I am the sound people hear

When freedom rings

And spread its deterrent ruffled angel wings
