They Are We Lyrics

Can’t look away from the pain that’s in front of me
Can’t look away form the pain in their eyes
I sit and I stare mesmerized by the t.v.
So much suffering compounded by lies
In Africa we ask, “Who are their people?”
In Brazil we ask, “Who are their people?”
In Haiti we ask, “Who are their people?”
In India we ask, “Who are their people?”
I am you
You are me
He is she
…and they are we
Don’t try to escape the burden of your privilege
Don’t try to escape your responsibility
It’s not enough to send money
Fight to be sure that all are fed and free
In Iraq we ask, “Who are their people?”
In Russia we ask, “Who are their people?”
In Taiwan we ask, “Who are their people?”
In the U.S. we ask, “Who are their people?”
I am you
You are me
He is she
…and they are we
We are all humans so we are their people
It’s time to take positive action
We are all humans so we are their people
It’s time to take positive action
Who are their people? We are their people!
Who are their people? We are their people!
Who are their people? We are their people….
I am you
You are me
He is she
…and they are we
