My Heroes Call Out
My heroes call out to me from across time Some call out from hundreds of years ago I can hear some from just yesterday My heroes call out to me and make my heart strong They are our alternative narrative Calling out our history Calling out our enemies Calling out our allies Calling out our resistance My heroes call out to me and I listen They are part of what makes our culture great They are the true Americans Calling out hatred makes us stronger My heroes call out that shit What if Huey P. Newton hadn't called out? What if Rosa Parks hadn't called out? What if John Trudell hadn't not called out? What if Malcolm X hadn't called out? What if Audre Lorde hadn't called out? What if Larry Itliong hadn't called out? What if we don't call out? My heroes call out to me
