By Bluz
We are all journeys trying to find our way home
Wading thru the troubled waters looking out for the bridge
And some of us right now
are the bridge
Carrying over the next generation of Justice seekers
Freedom fighters, educators, creators,
doctors, farmers, mother’s father’s
families communities
We are all
Stone and Steel, Courage and Passion
Standing strong over the troubled waters
This city we live in
Is landscaped with so many beautiful faces
Connected by Pride
We survive off the good vibes we give to each other
Not only fans of the Panther and Hornets
We are fans of handing out hot meals and blankets to the homeless
Habitat for humanity home builders
Building up our Pride for the Queen City
We aren’t just bankin and racing
We are erasing poverty and fighting for equality
Until the sun shines on every Charlottean
Warming the heart of every human being
And the beauty of this city radiates from every face
And every space feels like
Home
Feels we all belong
Feel we can all sing the same song
