Write it down

I cannot unbreak broken promises

But I can yield a pen.

That is the one thing I know I can.

So I will fill up all the pages.

I can not wield their weapons

But I can dictate history.

I can write down every story

They want us to erase.

Don't do nothing 

Because you think

You can't do anything. 

There is a cost to silence

And you will pay everything.

You cannot unbreak broken promises

But you can bear witness

To all of the atrocities 

They say they carry out in our name.

There is power in remembering.

There is history in the making

If you are unwilling to forget.
