Brave, watching witness
A seventeen-year-old star undimmed by fear
How beautiful you were
You were a pillar
You were a conduit
You were a mirror

And now, today
Standing in the light you created
Fearless and free
You are a pillar
You are a conduit
You are a mirror

The Rosa Parks of this generation
And yet your voice is yours
As is your bravery
You are a pillar
You are a conduit
You are a mirror

My daughter has a new history to study
And a new future because of you
There aren’t enough words and there are too many
You will be a pillar
You will be a conduit
You will be a mirror
