Poor innocent people forced to elope From their dwellings to which they were fond Not knowing for sure what the crystal ball is foretelling Or what awaits them from across the pond
A minority language completely misunderstood Ignorance showers their very being They try so hard to climb the ladders But are afraid of the brutality they'll be seeing
A land of wonder but also of hate Stretches out before their eyes Nows the time to lay down some roots Learn quickly how the land lies
Scattered dreams destroyed for some But new opportunities made for others Children need to feel the west As do their fathers and their mothers
