I shine bright
Pop them fingers
Dance to the music
I'm surrounded by disco lights
My life is colorful
Red... yellow... pink
Green... tells me to go
Orange... blue... and, purple
All the colors of the rainbow
As long as I have Music
You will never see my struggle
I don't carry the gray
The shaded black & White
Of when my Ancestors once were enslaved
I engrave myself in Diversity
I keep my self-esteem
High on positive energy
Free.... so that I may see clearly
Every cultural & ethnicity
Dancing to the same beat
In one united harmony
Watching the breeze shifting the palm trees
And No! This is not a dream
Those that don't choose a rightful course
Want me to think that this is just make believe
But, Everyone here bleeds one color.... RED
The Same Color my heart beats
I can feel everything
The drums, the symbols, the snares
Creates my free unapologetic Energy
Aye.... as I drop it down low
Blowing the gray off my whistle
While I shake the brown off my tambourine
And every move of the beat captures my body
Because I dance to the beat of a different kind of drum
Hip-hop, Rap, Reggae, House & Soul
Country & Western, Rhythm & Blues
And don't forget my Disco
Please don't assume that I can't keep up
Because I love to dance
And it's the one thing that....
I'm never giving up!!!
