they throw tear gas at our children
they hurt families who are just trying to get a better life
this country was made by immigrants
her anger grew as she heard of children dying in cages
her peers shrug, becoming numb to this reality
when will the pain end?
this man is destroying families and is still intent on building a wall
a wall will not keep us out, we will continue to fight for a better future
