A lyric poem is usually short and expresses the personal emotions or feelings of the narrator. It is very rythmic, and the most common meters used in lyric poetry are iambic, trochaic, pyrrhic and anapestic. However, some lyric poems have a combination of more than one meter.

Lift Every Voice and Sing, by James Weldon Johnson, is a relatively short poem consisting of only 3 stanzas of 10, 11 and 12 lines respectively. The poem uses more than one meter, with the use of iambic meter for some lines. For example: "<em>Yet </em><em>with</em><em> a </em><em>stead</em><em>y </em><em>beat</em><em>,  Have </em><em>not</em><em> our </em><em>wear</em><em>y </em><em>feet</em>"<em>.</em> There is also a lot of rhyming and repetition of patterns throughout the lines, and it deals with vivid imagery to express the emotions of the narrator. All of those elements are characteristic of a lyric poem.

The line of the poem that shows how the speaker wants to change the world is "That all these walls oppression builds / Will have to go!" (Lines 9-10), as shown in option C.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The speaker shows how the walls are making him uncomfortable.
  • This oppresses him and it is an oppression that increases upon him with great influence.
  • He realizes that this is not a bad thing and that something must be done to change this situation.
  • For that reason, he decides to get up and go to where he can change that situation.

In this case, we can see that the speaker believes that to change the situation in the world, he needs to get up and do something and not wait for someone to solve it.
