It’s the year of 2020​
Which no one will forget,​
When we fought a deadly virus​
That posed a deadly threat.​

Mel rhymes her way through ​lockdown,​
It enables her to cope,​
And in her witty verses​
Spreads positivity and hope.

The widespread effects of ​Covid-19 and the continued fight ​against racism are rhymed ​hand-in-hand with the SpaceX rocket launch and the passing of time in quarantine. ​

Oh, filthy hands in a concrete body​
And reprobate heart​
From the celestial invisible aboard​
Came the voice​
Take them off​

Wish this memory will fade away forever​
My left brain sang it as a fresh song​
Hot tears vowed never to cease​
Cause the nightmare lives in me​
To shout out those memories is my wish​
To tell you​
Take off your filthy hands
