In orthography and typography, letter case (or just case) is the distinction between the letters that are in larger upper case (also capital letters, capitals, caps, large letters, or more formally majuscule (see Terminology) and smaller lower case (also small letters, or more formally minuscule, see Terminology) in the written representation of certain languages. Here is a comparison of the upper and lower case versions of each letter included in the English alphabet (the exact representation will vary according to the font used):
Typographically, the basic difference between the majuscules and minuscules is not that the majuscules are big and minuscules small, but that the majuscules generally have the same height. The height of the minuscules varies, as some of them have parts higher or lower than the average, i.e. ascenders and descenders. In Times New Roman, for instance, b, d, f, h, k, l, t are the letters with ascenders, and g, j, p, q, y are the ones with descenders. Further to this, with old-style numerals still used by some traditional or classical fonts—although most do have a set of alternative Lining Figures— 6 and 8 make up the ascender set, and 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 the descender set.
Patricia Lee "Patti" Smith (born December 30, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, poet and visual artist who became a highly influential component of the New York City punk rock movement with her 1975 debut album Horses.
Called the "punk poet laureate", Smith fused rock and poetry in her work. Smith's most widely known song is "Because the Night", which was co-written with Bruce Springsteen. The song reached number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1978. In 2005, Patti Smith was named a Commander of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Ministry of Culture, and in 2007, she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. On November 17, 2010, she won the National Book Award for her memoir Just Kids. The book fulfilled a promise she had made to her former long-time roommate and partner, Robert Mapplethorpe. In Rolling Stone magazine's list of 100 Greatest Artists published in December 2010, she was in 47th place. She is also a recipient of the 2011 Polar Music Prize.

Katniss…
(Verse)
Rebellion has a heart
Breaking as the dawn
Bursting into song
Bursting into song
(Pre-Chorus)
Bird in the hand
Another role to play
Mocking as the jay
Mocking as the jay
(Chorus – part 1)
She’s the silent one
In her soft boots
Racing through the flames
Racing through the flames
(Chorus – part 2)
She’s the silent one
In her soft boots
Trawling her bow
And her only truth
(Verse)
Rebellion is an arrow
Wired to the sun
Igniting everyone
Igniting everyone
(Pre-Chorus)
Bird in the hand
Another role to play
Mocking as the jay
Mocking as the jay
(Chorus – part 1)
She’s the silent one
In her soft boots
Racing through the flames
Racing through the flames
(Chorus – part 3)
She’s the silent one
In her soft boots
Mocking as the jay
And she’ll be mocking you
