		                Who should be on our currency?
				2Pac, Biggie, Nas, or Curren$y?
				One Franklin gone, another to supersede him
				Parks, Coretta Scott King, Ali
				
				Jimi Hendrix on the five, smashin’ a fender
				Pac still alive, no more pretenders
				Harriet bumps Hamilton, a new era starts
				Women get equal pay as the ten changes gender

				Jefferson tried to escape what happened w/ Hemings
				Jackie Robinson endured in and outta the innings
				But light will shine on history’s darker people
				42 on the 2 and the real hero’s winning

				Bass Reeves replaces Andrew Jackson
				Thurgood Marshall on the dollar gains traction
				“If only”, some say like it’s just a dream
				But nothing is gained through lack of action
