Fire burns
In the streets and in their souls
Fire as powerful as Prometheus' Flame,
A flame that ignited civilization
Ignites a civil movement.

The fire sparked by
Fueled by an endless hope
Controlled by no one.

Nine souls
Nine fires

Scared and terrified
They walk up the stairs
Knowing they have the world's eyes on them.

The door opens
The barrier breaks

The barrier that for so long kept
them from sitting in a proper classroom.

Nine souls
Nine fires,
Big Change
In a Little Rock
