Queen City's Will
In evils wake, Queen City weeps
The souls of ten, the Lord he keeps
Friends and loved one's, laid to rest
Our wise, our kind, our brave, our best
It's hates intent, that we divide
That colors used, to pick a side
But hate itself, could not prepare
A swift response, of love and care
Bent, not broken, we unite
Our cities strength, as one we fight
No evil act can ever kill
The power of Queen City's will!
