Internment
Sitting by himself
He waits for justice to come
But he is alone
Resisting the men
As he struggles for release
He feels so helpless
Imprisonment hurt
His ideals and beliefs
He wants to be freed
As life falls apart
Injustice falls together
Separating race
Sitting in his cell
Saying softly to himself
What is wrong with us?
Forty years have passed
He now tastes sweet innocence
Exonerated
She sees her father
As he is being taken
Very far away
A year passes by
When internment is enforced
Discrimination
Today she lectures
About the rights we deserve
And choices we make
Her Activism
Is proving to the whole world
That we are still strong
We are united
No matter how we struggle
We will make it through
