Anthem of the Unheard
                    David Roesch, Urban Academy


                 As fireworks and flash bangs burst on the street
                 And gunshots make people fall to their feet
                 As fear and paranoia starts to set in
                 Protesters and police will clash once again

                 From Stanton to Bronx the sirens will blare
                 Mixed with blades of news choppers suspended in air
                 Tears roll down the cheeks of black women and men
                 As protesters and police start to clash once again
