Текст песни Home of the Brave - Jessa Calderon



America, land of the free, hahaha
Home of the brave, not land of the free
Crooked cops on my street, steady harassing my peeps
Columbus didn't discover isht, he was lost at sea
Therefore my folks discovered him
There were no borders when
The santa maria came ashore
What gives immigrants the right to tell
The indigenous, "You can't be here no more?"
That's hypocrisy at its finest
I pray those seeing America's
Ugliest colors know that doesn't define us,
Us indigenous people, cause we too had a taste,
Had our culture stripped and traditions taken away,
Some folks make religion far too tremendous,
Keep taking it to war, religion will end us,
That's not a promise or a threat
The way we treat the world, that's simply something we can expect
If we keep moving this way, we're guaranteed regret
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
Times haven't changed
Fools like trump wanna make the indigenous go away
Illegal is the term being used freely
Know the bloodline of your family
Cause Europe isn't close
I'll walk across the Mexican border
For your land I'll need a plane or boat
The doctrine of discovery gives the right to steal, kill, and harm
I can't fathom rape came from the word of God
Man has an urge for profit, greed, and power
Once the lands in their hands they begin to devour
Everything is poisoned from water, food to our minds
They manipulate, and you don't see it as a crime
Open your eyes
Realize nothing they do benefits you
Illness stems from their modified foods
We'll inhale disease with the air that we breathe
When Earth's used up, we can't just leave
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
2016 still breeds stupidity
As much as we've advanced,
We took a thousand steps back
It's the future of our Children hurting
As these gases keep burning
So many lives die at the hands of oil companies corruption
Oil they steal
Oil they spill
Then turn around like it ain't nothin'
The Cree said "You cannot eat money."
My question to you, what will you do?
When you destroyed the water and lands so bad
There's no water or food?
Will you turn to your bible and pray?
Or heal the destruction and hate?
Our actions determine our fate
Let us love and respect our mother Earth before it's too late.
That's the least we can do
How can you kill the one whose loved you from the womb
How can you kill the one whose loved you from the womb
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
Can't call my folks illegal if yours came across the sea
