Ferguson 03:08
------------------------- F E R G U S O N ------------------------- In Ferguson Missouri Shot down in the streets Laid Mike Brown down, surely He’ll never get up to his feet See twelve shots rang out in chasing To halt, or maim, or kill Black luck in Missouri, At the seams it doesn’t spill Suspicion found two walkers They matched convenience crime Pursue if need pursuing Down Hell and Earths fine line Brought to the Grand Jury Each side the spoke, each side they sought A justice blind, a justice truthful The law is fair they thought Lines blur time ensuing The day the verdict dropped Tears fall with no conviction Away Wilson did walk Now Ferguson's in ash and flame Newscasters they flock To fan the fire of one man’s name Until, the next ones shot

about

This song is for those who's strength to hold their resolve in the hope that one day equality and justice will prevail over hate, carries us as a world and ever changing nation, into the future.

Michael Brown, Jr. (May 20, 1996 – August 9, 2014)

The tragedy of life is often not in our failure, but rather in our complacency.

-Benjamin E. Mays
