about

A song for undocumented immigrants.

lyrics

Send us your yearning,
Your longing to breath free,
Send us all of your dreams
And possibilities,
And we'll show you what yearning really means
And we won't let you breathe

Send us your rapists,
Send us your petty thieves,
Send us your murderers
Send us your scoundrels
They'll be primed to succeed here
There's not much else easier to be here


But don't let those walls stand between you and mercy, no
Do everything you can short of flying
And chase the American Dream while it's dying,
Chase the American Dream while it's dying,
Do everything it takes


They'll sound their red alert
And prey on all your fears
They'll taunt you endlessly
And come at you with spears
But you won't let them stab you
You're too proud to let them have you

Just charge on right ahead,
Don't give into dismay
And if anyone else
Should stand up in your way,
Gore them straight up through the heart
For the whole arena to see


And don't let those walls stand between you and relief, no,
Just hold on tight to everything you believe in
And chase the American Dream while it's still breathin',
Chase the American Dream while it's still breathin',
Do everything it takes


Don't lose sight of those greener grasses, no,
Do everything that you can short of flying
And chase the American Dream while it's dying,
Chase the American Dream while it's dying
I'll be sure to save it for you
