Look at us


    We are of earth and water


    Look at them


    It is the same


    Look at us


    We are suffering all these years


    Look at them


    They are connected


    Look at us


    We are in pain


    Look at them


    Surprised at our anger


    Look at us


    We are struggling to survive


    Look at them


    Expecting sorrow be benign


    Look at us


    We are the ones called pagan


    Look at them


    On their arrival


    Look at us


    We are called subversive


    Look at them


    Descending from name callers


    Look at us


    We wept sadly in the long dark


    Look at them


    Hiding in technologic light


    Look at us


    We buried the generations


    Look at them


    Inventing the body count


    Look at us


    We are older than America


    Look at them


    Chasing a fountain of youth


    Look at us we are embracing earth


    Look at them


    Clutching today


    Look at us


    We are living in the generations


    Look at them


    Existing in jobs and debt


    Look at us


    We have escaped many times


    Look at them


    They cannot remember


    Look at us


    We are healing


    Look at them


    Their medicine is patented


    Look at us


    We are trying


    Look at them


    What are they doing


    Look at us


    We are children of earth


    Look at them


    Who are they
