Imagine a Hip Hop Singer Opening at the Gettysburg Memorial

 

 (Yo, listen up)




Verse 1
Yo, check it, it all went down eighty-seven years back
Founding Fathers dropped this nation on the map
Built on liberty, a dream for all to share
Equality for everyone, that was the air we breathed in there

Chorus
But now we in a civil war, homie, ain't no joke
Testing if this dream, this union, can stay woke
This battlefield here, soaked in blood and pain
We gather to honor those who died for freedom's reign

Verse 2
This ground right here, it ain't for us to bless
The soldiers, living, fallen, did the best they could confess
Their dedication, their sacrifice, a story untold
Words can't touch the power that their actions hold

Chorus
The world might not remember speeches we convey
But what happened here, that's etched in history's display
It's on us, the living, to carry on the fight
For the cause they died for, burning ever so bright

Bridge
Let their sacrifice be the fuel that sets us ablaze
Renew our devotion, turn these dark days to brighter haze
We gotta finish what they started, elevate the game
From their honored deaths, let freedom reign, ain't no shame

Chorus
We pledge right here, their memory won't fade
This nation, under God, a new freedom parade
Government of the people, by the people, for the people strong
This dream won't die, we carry the anthem all along
