A rap thing about the bravest character in Fahrenheit 451: the old woman who sets her own house on fire to prevent the firemen from taking her down their own way. I know I'm not a good rapper, but whatever. If you like the beat and the rap and know you can do it better, please ask me to send you the beat and you can record over it. These are the lyrics:
"There must be something in books, things we can't imagine, to make a woman stay in a burning house; there must be something there. You don't stay for nothing." Part One of Fahrenheit 451
She's got an army of words
And a house full of scars
How did she kill the system
How did she break the bars
She stands up in a fortress
Only one she will know
Only life on the planet
Only face left to show
When the firemen came
She remains the same
She remains a name
In a world of silence
They thought her a prop
A joke left unstopped
Yet she turned in their crops
Witnessed the fall of their blindness
The doubter outstretches a dying hand
As lame as a sieve in the sand
Fell in love with the turn of a page
Turned away from years of rage
All those thousand doubts
Left in the drought
Came back from the grave
Pierced like a spade,
A deadly mind-grenade he couldn't evade and his mind betrayed
A ray of Hope
