Barbaric waste rewrite: from Amazing Grace
Barbaric waste, we beseech the proud
Courageous woman, I see
Voice was ignored, but now implored
Was drowned but now I plea
'Twas lies that taught my heart to fear
And grave tears released
How reckless will those fools appear
The hour they first do see
Through many angers, foils, and scares
I have already done
This cage that held my sisters rage
Released we will lead you home
Since women been here ten thousand years
Right, shining as the sun
We've no less days to bring Loves grace
Than when we first begun
Barbaric waste how bleak this place
That crushes spirits like me
What once was bound, must now get loud
It’s time, now we will scream!
——
May you never figure out
A game
Someone else
Created for you
Lest you question
All reality
And self
