L. Boogie sparks
The mental
Soothing sound
Old school vibe
New school live
Princess of peace
Queen of conscious
Responsive worldly affairs
Look up the hills
Lauryn Hill cares
When it’s hidden
In this dark government
This queen shares
Message of an evangelist
Words of protest
Angela Davis
Epic like Harriet Tubman
Songstress of ethnic pride
Ella Fitzgerald with a picket sign
Saying the system choking
Our rights like a vine
She is our Esther
Virtuous lady in divinity
Equality for all men
Her music extends through
Many genres
L. Boogie sparks gives light
To this dismal state
Of the United States
Hearken what she states
