I don't have the answers, all I do is write, and hope others read. We saw a mother murdered in broad daylight in Minneapolis. I wrote this in her memory. Anyone with some musical talent who wants to use this, please do. I give the rights away to the world, no way I would take a dime for something like this. For 3 years, I've been seeking musicians to write with me, maybe this will break through. Here is a version from Suno, I don't love using it, but feel a bit lost in getting these words out there.

In her Good Name [In memory of Renee Good]
Let me tell you a something
A woman named Renee
With Laughter in her eyes
And a tendency to pray
When her name was heard
It was in the vein of good
Helping and a singing
Keepin’ people safe
Her name was Good
One fateful day
Drivin' in her 'hood
She saw something mean
In the name of good
Saw too many dreams
One too many things
Through smoke and dust
Watchin’ it rust
At the start of the day
She had something to say
In her Good name
Say her name
Renee
In her Good name
Now around the bend
Some scared little men
Beating people’s doors
Pushin’ to the floors
Screamin', oh so loudly
Gettin’ all rowdy
Their faith gone rogue
Bought and sold
Saddled so spastic
Wearin' traces
Of the fake plastic
Mara-Lago faces
Now they say her name
Say her name
Renee
In her Good name
The Youtube memes
The Facebook things
Their hittin’ us daily now
Slicing all the angles
Gettin' it tangled how
The shit went down
But if you go and unravel that knot
You know what they forgot?
the truth is true
its lookin’ at me
And it’s lookin’ at you
For the grace of love
Ah the Gods above
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
Here we come
And we Say her name
Renee
In her Good name
Got some gray in your soul?
in a dark place?
Keep your head held high
Just give it some space
Yeah don't you recall?
Even in a black hole,
only light escapes
And all i know
As my heart elates
Man it can't wait
a meditative state
This is all so fleeting
I’ll keep repeating
Repeat with me
And we Say her name
Renee
In her Good name
Let me tell you a tale
A mother one day
With something to say
True courage, afraid
Showed us sacrifice
Can never truly be unmade
They thought they stopped her
Shut her up,
shot her one, two, thrice
But to their surprise
Straight outta the ICE
came another one
a wife
a sister
a brother
a son
one hundred
1000
10,000
1 million strong
Standing at her back
Now it's us who are
Banging on the doors
Sleeping on the floors
We never stop
It never ends
Until the freedom come
They kingdom come
OUR will be done
Until we right the wrong
For those who are slain
Those who are poor
Go to your friends
Help them stare
Into the sun
Eyes up head down
Pushin’ everyone along
Keep the poise
Watch for the boys
In camo and masks
Pointing their toys
Like a buncha cowboys
Send their asses home
Drive them insane
So they face their pain
As for Renee
I think she's around
Seeping in the cracks
Soaking in the ground
Planting that seed
So we can turn this around
Is she the last?
This line from our past?
It spreads through time
Keeping us thinking, like
The Abraham Lincolns
Crazy horse and those
Black church deacons
Don't forget, MLK
Mr. Evers
Mr. Till
And Harvey milk as well,
John T. Williams
A man named George Floyd
And Breonna Taylor
So many others
Say their names
They won't take my joy
I will revel in my rights
When they double down on death
I will fight for life
They won't take my joy
I will revel in my rights
When they double down on death
I will fight for life
They won't take my joy
I will revel in my rights
When they double down on death
I will fight for life
They won't take my joy
I will revel in my rights
When they double down on death
I will fight for life
They won't take my joy
I will revel in my rights
When they double down on death
I will fight for life
