Look at me, across the border, beyond the wall
Look at me, the way you would observe yourself
In life's broken mirror
No, I refuse to bow
To those who say
The world is changing now
And as it changes there's no way
To see the other like a child lost in the loneliest night
Those who'd sentence us to fear and fight
Here is a woman in labor
Her child will soon be born but who knows if he'll find favor
In the eyes of those who rule and rampage
Who dominate the earth and skies
With words of hate, they close the gates of hope
Come, we cannot let them blind us
For every woman in the world knows what it's like
When they cripple and bind us
Forever searching and waiting and anticipating
We ask ourselves, when?
We ask again and again
When will we finally find freedom?
Look, There is a crack and it's growing
There is a light and it's glowing
Through the sorrow, beyond the tears, beyond tomorrow
There must be something more that we can do
I can see you, your beauty shows
Beyond your weakness and pain, it glows
The morning is near
Now, as the stars disappear
We'll shatter that wall
We'll watch it fall
Together, sister, we can
Come, give me your hand...
