Can this be America?  The home of the free?
When for the first time I feel like a refugee
When we sought asylum, we were welcomed in
These days it's perceived as a sin
 
Do you remember the fall of Saigon?
The city turned red by the Viet Cong
The choices they had were to flee or believe
That's when my family had no choice but to leave
 
This is the way of the Vietnamese
When we became the new refugees
 
(Whoa-Whoa) By raising the fences we're lowering the bar
(Whoa-Whoa) It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar
(Whoa-Whoa) By persecuting people just trying to be free
(Whoa-Whoa) We're stopping them from their pursuit of liberty
 
Since when do passports, without the right stamps
Send people back to concentration camps
No sight of future, no guarantees
Yet they still risked it all to save their families
 
What kind of world do we live in where this is okay?
Borders are baseless, it's one human race
 
(Whoa-Whoa) By raising fences we're lowering the bar
(Whoa-Whoa) It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar
(Whoa-Whoa) By persecuting people just trying to be free
(Whoa-Whoa) We're stopping them from their pursuit of liberty
 
All of the people still watching their backs
Hiding in fear, covering their tracks
Could this be the start of the 4th Reich?
This isn't what freedom looks like 

By raising the fences we're lowering the bar
It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar
(Whoa-Whoa) By persecuting people just trying to be free
(Whoa-Whoa) We're stopping them from their pursuit of liberty
(Whoa-Whoa) By raising the fences we're lowering the bar
(Whoa-Whoa) It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar
