about

This is a song I wrote a long time ago. Finally getting around to recording a very temporary demo of it.

lyrics

With Liberty and Justice For All?

He was born in a time of war;
his mother feared for his life.
They made their way down to the shore,
and sailed off in the dead of night
“to be free.”

Mr. politician man
just because your skin is white,
or because his is tan
has he no right
to be free?

“With liberty and justice for all,”
you carry your flag to make you feel tall?
You’ll look good only if you make them feel small?
They’re nothing to you –
if they weren’t born in America.

Documentation she’ll never get,
working two jobs to stay alive.
Deportation she’ll never forget,
doing all she can to survive
like you and me.

The son grows up in poverty,
dreams often of the future.
He learns the salute of liberty,
but doesn’t like the picture
like you and me.

“With liberty and justice for all,”
you carry your flag to make you feel tall?
You’ll look good only if you make them feel small?
They’re nothing to you –
if they weren’t born in America.

Our government ruled their elections –
servants to the great white ghosts.
No self-determination;
they’re arriving on our coasts –
these human beings

Our corporate colonial conspiracies –
destruction in the name of greed,
which pillaged their land and economy,
‘till there’s nothing left to feed
these human beings.
