lyrics

Home Is Not

Home is not
Where children nightmare
where grandmas suffer
in their minds
the Earth changes from brown to red
and it is not colorado

Where your children breathe only as they die
where you owe all and eat all of your neighbors food
where we the US have turned their home into mercury rivers
home is not

and sends their fishing villages
where local pescado campo
????
only in Japan
where chayotes are exported and sencotles die of thirst
from our toxic waste

leaving behind diarrheic black waters for babies to drink
villages south of our south border
where men have left to the US
where there are no men
home is not
during our wars to build homes
load trains
there are not men
rivet the metal plates
there are no men
where young girls exploited
are snatched by narcos at fourteen
home is not

home is not
we the US have hobbled their homes ?
And now they're knocking at our door
the two thousand mile door
with electronic chicken wire
and superheroes that herd the victims in protest
protect the rich imposters

home is not
