Why I had to be a political activist
Why I had to be a political activist
After watching
Sitting passively
Not participating
I knew
I had been distracted
There is no shame
A conversation is enough to start
Re-directing the agenda
Giving the power back
To the people
We all live under the political domain
Either actively or passively
So I ask will you
Speak out now or later
Cry out ... why me?
