Blazing Light
I am filled with blazing light,
Igniting words like tidal waves;
I will stand my ground and fight.
Banish fear, take back the night:
Do not tell me to behave;
I am filled with blazing light.
I speak, I sing, I shout, I write —
I’ll be silent in my grave.
I will stand my ground and fight.
This is no time to be polite;
I find the strength and I am brave.
I am filled with blazing light.
If I dare, I might incite
A flood of others, rushing waves.
I will stand my ground and fight.
We demand the wrongs made right,
The slaves are freed, the children saved.
I am filled with blazing light;
I will stand my ground and fight.
