We need to wake up
We need to wise up
We need to open up our hearts
And do it Now, Now, Now !
We need to build a more just future
And we need to start right now !
We share one planet
With man-made borders
That could be changed, and rearranged
And do it Now, Now, Now!
We need to build a more just future
And we need to start right now !
Fight for fairness
And more awareness
No more race bans, no deport plans.
Do it Now, Now, Now!
We need to build a more just future
And we need to start right now!
Immigration
It is a challenge
But it is one that we can meet
And do it Now, Now, Now
We need to build a more just future
And we need to start right now!
