Here They Stand

Like homeless flocking to the food shelf
The youth flock to protests
Hungry for change
Thirsty for a belief exchange.

Their individuality, their shelter
Their beliefs, their hope
Their resilience, their protection
Their confidence, their election.

Don’t need a label or a brand
Not children of tomorrow,
But leaders of today
Millennial, if you may.

Attune to progress
Demanding growth
They stand together
The strongest tether

Fighting for unity
Screaming for equality
Calling for justice
Acknowledging all prejudice

Can you feel them beating in your heart?
As they march victoriously
They’ve got rhythm and blues
A steep path with flashy shoes
