Statue of Liberty

In the early '50s, and '60s, and '70s
American stretched forth her hands
And welcome us all
Yes, we built, and now, they refuse us
Yes, we can clean it, and now, they refuse us
Yes, they mark us, they su-su-su

Yes, we've been there with a good intention
Yes, we've been there with a working intention
Yes, we've been there with a educational intention
Yes, we've been there

So many different nationalities, been there too
Never been treated like we do
Never been handled like we do
Never been talked about like we do

We have a no intention to bomb threat
No intention to hijacking
Ain't no intention to hostage holding

Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see

If it is a international problem
We want to see
It is a political problem
We want to see
If it is a island problem
We want to see
If it is a continental problem
We want to see

Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see

If I am right, then, I should be right
If I am wrong, no argument
Remember people, the statue stand
For equal rights and justice

Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see

We were picking apples many years ago
Picking grapes, many years ago
Hospital workers many years ago
Housekeepers many years ago

Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see

It's not like we're begging or demanding anything
It's not like we're begging or demanding anything
It's just an example
It's just an example

Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see
Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see

In the '40s and '50s, no one was fair
In the '60s, people start to share
In the '70s, and we were there
In the '90s, immigration get scared

Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see
Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see

Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see
Statue of Liberty, light up your torch
So, we can see
Statue of Liberty
