[Final Words: Announcer]
And now, sit back, relax and enjoy the show
[Intro: Maya Angelou]
They laugh to shield their crying
They shuffle through their dreams
They stepped ’n fetched a country
And wrote the blues in screams
I understand their meaning
It could an did derive
From living on the edge of death
They kept my race alive
By wearing the mask
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Gasp!
[Streetlight Symphony Lead Chord Progression Plays]
