(My Liberation Poems)

Shoot Me in the head,

If I die, I die.

Shoot me in the head,

For Speaking Out the truth,

The truth that stings you.

Shoot Me in the head,

If I die, I die.

Shoot me in the head

If you embrace corruption,

A vice that stings me.

Shoot Me in the head,

If I die, I die.

Shoot me in the head

Because tomorrow-

I will still walk on those streets.

Shoot Me in the head,

If I die, I die.

Shoot me in the head

Because, if walking against corruption

Is a crime, then I will walk again.

Shoot Me in the head,

If I die, I die.

Shoot me in the head,

For Speaking against stolen Iron sheets

And a corrupt economy.

Shoot Me in the head,

For studying with my grandfather 

In the same Walls

That now look Blood thirsty,

For age has drained them.

Shoot Me in the head 

For Speaking out on what stings

Him and him and them, and her.

Her who doesn't look like her

Who is married to a commander in chair.

Shoot me in the head,

If I am being narrow minded, but

I will still walk for what is right 

Because that is my right

To tell you what is right.

Shoot Me in the head,

If I die, I die.

My mother knows that-

My voice will still live.

Just make sure you shoot me in the head,

Because I know, I will do what I did today.
