“Bigger than You” A rap by Will Regan,  Inspired by Mountains beyond Mountains
Listen here, son,  you’ve got to learn.  Where I come from,  ain’t nothing getting done.
I look left  and see a dead baby,  dropped by the world  for being too lazy.  To my right,  a momma in blood.  picks up her child  and fall back in the mud.
Up above,  the Heavens are crying.  Their love cannot keep  people from dying.  To my back—  a place of disease,  but which is worse:  Ignorance or TB?
People of the world,  you gotta feel  the pain and corruption  in order to heal.  The dirt is littered  with raw graffiti,  a bloody mixture,  the texture of Haiti.
Stop being stupid!  Stop being a tool!  Don’t be one of those  selfish fools  who sits back  while illness attacks.  Boy, this shit is badly out of wack.
Do you hear the heartbeat  of the dying wife?  Do you taste the passion  of fighting for one’s life?  Is the Golden Rule  in your heart?  Can you feel the rhythm?  Are you ready to start?
With my head held high  and eyes on the sky,  I’ma feel the beat  and recognize  that on this path  my soul will ignite,  absorb the heat,  fight for what’s right.
So I’ma start walking,  doing my part.  Sure ain’t much,  but at least it’s a start.  I’ll help people  while my body is grooving.  Even in adversity,  I’ll never stop moving!
Rap this song, brother,  & feel the fire.  Take an overdue cue  from the choir.  One—Two—  This is bigger than  you.
