Borders

Across barren land
And dark ocean
Escape living empty mouth
To empty hand
So children could live dreams
And not drown swimming upstream

So we link our arms
Across borders
We only follow love
Don't obey the jester's orders
Shoes for barefoot citizens
Open arms for denizens
The wailing woman chasing us
This tale is ageless
Suffering humanity is always going to be
Following the breadcrumbs to the golden bakery

So we link our arms
Across man made lines
We only follow love
Not kings or barking mimes
We will not taser hope
Ascend every steep slope
Until we reach a place
Of mercy love and grace

So we link our arms
Across borders
Only follow love
Don't obey the jester's orders

So we link our arms
Across borders
We only follow love
Don't obey the jester's orders

Sisters brothers
We all have the same African mother
She watches us from the cosmos
Hopes we embrace each other

So we link our arms
Across imaginary lines
We only follow love
Destroying hatred's land mines
