The Slave Who....

   


                 The Slave Who.....                                       Alpha Omega Diallo
         

           Blood dripping from my eyes.

           Covered in blood from head to toes 

           but only my arrogance is exposed.

           Some call me Fred, Freddy.

           But my real name is Frederick.

           The soul that is within me no man 

           can degrade.

      

           My name is Frederick Douglass

           I am the generation that 

           represents the frustrations

           of the nations.

           I am not a coward

          I'm just a flower.

           I am not egotistical 

           I'm just a political .

            

          My name is Frederick Douglass

          I'm the slave who defied his masters.

          I'm the slave with a dream bigger than 

          this planet. The truth is simple...

        

          If there is no struggle, there is no progress.

          Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet 

          depreciate agitation, are men who  

          want crops without plowing up their ground.


        They want rain without thunder and lighting. 

            They want the ocean without the 

         awful roar of its many waters.

       

        Power concedes nothing without a demand.

        It never did and never will.

        The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the 

        endurance of whom they oppress.
