We’re stronger together,
Boy, girl,
Man, woman
Them, other...

Why would you think you’re superior?
Why would you think you’re spectacular?
Our histories are woven,
Whether we like it or not...
There’s no time for malice that widens our rot -

Because this is where they want you; under their thumb in their cot...
But when you speak up, with nothing but the truth– they’re shot...

And this is what we’ve got...
Act now or flop...
No time for comfort in your clan,
Measure this wing span...

We can still fly out of here if we want...
Stop judgements based on immediate response...

Or watch each other die,
In sweltering springtime, spying through stick masks of spite...
