"And No One Can Take That Away"

He was afraid, afraid of himself. 
He was afraid of the racism that is present and that awaits him. 
He was afraid of the sexism that is present and that awaits him. 
He was afraid of the homophobia that is present and that awaits him.

What sucks is that it was already here. 
Ascribed, written down, planned out, blue printed, it existed.

And so, he is afraid.
 I'm afraid too. 
But look at the environment, 
look at the surroundings,
 the people,
 the sky, 
we are in existence despite what has and what is occurring. 
Shouldn't that give you hope? 
Shouldn't that ignite courage and fearlessness? 
Can it be the fuel?

We afraid, 
yea we both afraid. 
But living,
we living too. 
And no one can take that away.
