Jobs, culture, security
These things mean nothing if we're not really free
War, violence, and poverty
Turn them away with your fear mongering
The tired, the poor, the yearning to breathe
Have we forgotten our history?
As the homeless and wretched arrive at your shore
Don't forget that we were the same before
Build up your walls, forget your past, ignore reform
Draw up your lines, blame it on crime, close all doors
Fill us with lies, say that we're free
Turn them away, dig their graves, no empathy
How stupid are we?
Creating black markets and ask why they leave
Why can't you see?
How the bombs you drop displace families
Build up your walls, forget your past, ignore reform
Draw up your lines, blame it on crime, close all doors
Fill us with lies, say that we're free
Turn them away, dig their graves, no empathy
What was once the land of opportunity
Is now the land of the oppressed
What was once the land of opportunity
Has locked its doors and thrown out the key
