lirik lagu don’t send for the others – faith santilla
[faith santilla]
people often make the terrible mistake that our history began when we arrived in the states
when in fact, it started back in the land we came from
where the only peace we knew came from the barrel of a gun
we didn’t start the fire
it was always burning ’cause invaders kept returning
with their weapons and their sermons
from china to españa, america, j*pan
wars we nеver started but werе fought on our own land
decades became centuries of massive devestation
no agrarian reform
no nationalization
no industry
no liberty
no self*determination
when speaking speaking out for freedom led to mass incarceration
of our leaders, our people, whether woman or a man
local tyrants kept in power by our good old uncle sam
[echoing]
uncle sam
the land that we once tilled
is now filled
with export daffodils
learned sk!lls for jobs that don’t exist for us [?]
but they need nurses in the states
hands for their tikes
a source of surplus labor when they need to break a strike
see, u.s. foreign policy prefer the infancies
of third world economies just like the philippines
factors push and pull and that the rich use to keep crooking
americans convinced that there were jobs before we took them
so don’t send for the others
tell them not to come
they’re stealing kids from mothers while brothers on the run
they complain that us migrants put a strain on the system
then refrain from returning kids caged by the system
and justice, what of justice?
they don’t practice habeas corpus
we have rights but they ignore us
yelling, “borders are too porous”
it’s not the america for us, that we saw up on tv
the home of the brave and land of opportunity
dashing cowboys, valiant soldiers defending democracy
that was all a parody
turns out we’re the enemy
[low*pitched voices]
you’re the enemy
you’re the enemy
you’re the enemy
