They scream
They fight
They claw
At eyes that
Can't ignore
The severe disparities
Separating you and me
They lunge
They charge
They scream
At those who
Clutch at dreams
That linger in their hearts
To stave away the dark
We hope
We scheme
We stand
To liberate the lands
To fight against the night
Of patriarchal sham
We hold out hope on hope
We fight
We die
We bleed
For those in our hearts
As deep as the sea
They're the reason we fight
For those who are in need
We scream
We fight
We claw
We fight the endless fight
Of the damn Hidden War
We end what needs to end
To liberate the poor.
