Trail of Tears

Deep in the night we shoot up from the ground
Out in the open with no one around
Gather our spirits and light up the town
Nothing to stop us and no one to hold us down
Hold us down
Hold us down

We come in pieces that fell from the sky
Up to our ankles and up to our eyes
Dirt in our fingers that keeps us alive
Take this away and you know I could never survive
Never survive

Drawing a map of the places we stay
Badlands and mountains that fill up the page
Big empty spaces from wars that you rage
And nothing can ever replace what our people gave
Cause now we're safe
