Up Lifting Our Warriors
Up Lifting Our Warriors
Let us take a moment
a moment of silence please
to up lift our warriors
the life we live is not easy
A heart of thundering passion
pain, stress, and anger
loneliness, heartache, depression
Lets not forget the joy and laughter
triumphs and victories
family ties, hugs and memories
We pound the pavement marching
we pound our keyboards
we pound our beats and drums
Si Se Puede
Yes we can and yes we will!
We are your Mothers, Fathers,
Grandmothers, Grandfathers,
Sisters and Brothers,
Daughters and Sons
Children of the Sun
We cry for those without tears
We comfort those whom have fears
We march for those that can't
We speak for those without voices
We fight for those with no choices
We are not glamorous or rich
battle scares and tracks of tears
worn and tired from the years
yet we still rise to battle
In the form of words, song and art
marching, networking, protests
education, love and sharing
We are everywhere
if you but open your eyes to see
fine tune your ears to hear
open your heart to feel
Never forget, always respect
Let us Up Lift the Warriors
Pray to keep them safe
take a moment to smile
reach out a hand in thanks
For all those who came before me
for those that walk beside me
and for all those yet to come
Peace, Honors and Love
