about

No person is "illegal". No one deserves to be kept in a cage without some sort of due process. No child should have to represent themselves. No one should be held indefinitely. No children should be ripped from their parent's arms. I wish those without ears to hear could hear us so this song is a wish and a hope and a dream.

lyrics

Talkin' To

Brother, aren't we the fortunate ones...
Mother, you never did have to run...
Father, I know you'd put your life on the line, if the lives to be bettered were yours and mine.

When you toe their line, then you toe to hate
And hate ain't ever made anybody great.
I know you better, than "they and them"
So listen up, I need to tell you somethin'

I wanna talk to you.
I wanna talk to you.
Ooooo you need some talkin' to.

The people who are shouting into your ears
Have everything to gain if they can sell you their brand of fear.
And they'll paint that fear with colors you can see,
So you know who to hate or judge more easily.

Oh they can make that hate shine...
Say it comes straight from the divine...
Then they feel so righteous,
'Cause they think they're right.
But you and I both know
You and i both know
That's not how you get to the light...

So I wanna talk to you.
I wanna talk to you.
You need some talkin' to
You need some talkin' to
You need some talkin' to

Sit down, get comfy, we're gonna be here awhile
But I've got some wonderful news, wonderful news
Only hate has to lose.
If that's what we choose
'Cause there's enough for everybody
Enough for every body
If that's what we choose.
