Life as I know it
has changed
ripped away from me like a child's toy
for one reason or another
they want to find out how we live
how we breathe
what our land holds
they simply want a new place to sleep
a new spot to lay their heads
one more dot on the map
They want to know how our god judges our actions and
oh
do we have a god and who are they
ar they the same as theirs because only their god matters
they are white so they are right
they want a say in who leads
they want us
They took a queen from Hawaii
Staked a claim in Canada
and oh
thirteen colonies
on the North American continent
we've been pushed down and bruised
given nothing to lose because
it's all being taken from us
