Is it really worth it
To have to benefit your lies
By sending the masked men after us
Day after day?
Because I cry myself to bed each night
And I worry for my life
Because you are shooting the citizens
Who did nothing wrong
And I flinch at the news now
And the only hope I have
Is being banished
When protests are called insurrections
I'm just a young girl
I haven't been here very long
But now I hold my head in my hands
Worrying that it was far too short
I have been here all my life
And so has my father
And his father too
We are not new here
And when I heard news
That the men in masks came for my friends
I shook so hard I almost fell
I had to crawl up to bed
What can we do
To make your horrid ice melt?
Because I am a citizen
And I am scared for my life

STAND UP.
