We.Are
Somos trabajadores, somos fuertesWhen we’re taken for granted, somos pacientesResolute, we gather and we sharePlanting seeds, somos jardinerosPower in numbers, wisdom in cooperationWhen we struggle, somos un colectivoWithout shelter, we brace the storm togetherWe don’t forget, somos elefantesAfter sacrifice, we’re asked to sacrifice some moreWhen our shins are kicked, no somos victimasWe organize, we organize, nos organizamosIf a rubber stamp meets resistance, somos el obstáculoWe aspire, we overcome, justice through perseveranceA better future, somas visionariosWritten April 2013 in San Antonio, Texas
