Our Anthem by Renee Goust ft. Diana Gameros

Have you heard the news, my love?
They want a wall
But fences are just cages in denial

When hate seduces fear
And bodies fall
The silence left is real
It feels so wrong

But we’ll be standing straight and tall
We’ll wave our flag up in the air
For all the uphill battles won
Your smile will be my love affair

You, the one with all the friends and fears and
I, the one with ancient pain and tears, we’ll fight
For what we think is true and if we must
We’ll fly to make it through their cloud of dust

And we’ll be standing straight and tall
We’ll wave our flag up in the air
For all the uphill battles won
Your smile will be my love affair

De un lado de la línea me dicen que soy gringa
But on this other side I know I need to have ID on me

Mi piel es pasaporte peligroso ante la ley
Deporting melanin makes them feel sovereign, so they pray

Arriba esas vecinas que cuidaban mi jardín
When blue uniforms with guns said I was privileged to come back in

El muro es un tumor, y la cura, nuestras manos
Courageous neighbors pulling ropes in from the Río Bravo

You raise my voice, vecino! Earth was born without fronteras
Restitch this map conmigo bordando blankets de Broken banderas

And we’ll be standing straight and tall
We’ll wave our flag up in the air
For all the uphill battles won
Your smile will be my love affair
Your eyes will be my green grass
Your arms will slowly take me there
Your smile will be my love affair
