An Autistic Man was killed today.
A deaf man's life was tossed away.
When Will The Rain Stop?
A young man with mental illness was killed
not to long ago.
Some of us ask Why?- And how can this be so?
When Will The Rain Stop?
They live in our communities- They have rights
too.
There must be a better way- Why can't they be
protected
like me and you?
When Will The Rain Stop?
Those who are charged to serve and protect them,
are
the one's committing the crimes.
For their lack of training, and education surfaces
every time.
When Will The Rain Stop?
It continues to rain, as we continue on with
our daily lives.
Will another one become a victim? Will another
one die?
When Will The Rain Stop?
When Will The Rain Stop? - So they can have their
place too.
For the answer should be so easy in what to do.
Tell Me-
When Will The Rain Stop?
