lyrics

On the border land today,
where the people all are gathering
With their family and their hopes,
without much but just a prayer


They’ve come all this way, cuz they have a dream
Just to find a home, they can call their own.
Just to live and breathe, with their families
Find a way to live, without less fear, less pain

But we send them back, on a plane at dawn
Where they go to die, in a place unknown
Where they lineup to board a plane underneath our flags.
Where they’re just a name, and not ever seen

But their is no wall today
that can hold back what is happening
There’s a million children lost
countless parents, countless aged

When did we lose sight of the simple acts
To protect the young, and respect the old
That beneath this vast stretch of Texas Sky, we’ll see
we are all the same, this we hope, we pray.
