They took pieces of me with them One by one they chipped some part of me The didn't even realize what they were doing They split my heart open and they grasped it with their violent hands They exposed me I was no longer a human to them They took away my ability to feel They though they could shut my mouth But I spoke out I survived their attack I gained my strength I stood in front of the crowd and I told my truth I stand with my brothers and sisters who have fallen victim to violent hands like theirs We survived And we will not stop fighting
