When people hurt others
it feels as if they’re hurting me,
Why would you kill someone
who could potentially be
a leader or teacher or one who will feed
us all of our needs,
In this country of rapists and murderers
all of us must stick together,
All of us must fight,
All of us must not sit down and talk
or just go for a walk,
It would be nice
If we could go and buy rice
and come back home that night,
Let us run free,
Run without worry,
Why would you want to harm me,
My life has just begun
I may help someone you love
in the long run,
No I won’t sit here,
I won’t live in fear,
I WILL BE HEARD
EVEN IF I DIE WHILE I TRY!

If You Close Your Eyes by Ana Segura (7th Grader)
I'm on this earth for a reason,
Maybe I'll grow up to be a leader
changing people's lives
But how would you know
you don't bother to give us a chance
to live fully
I know that you've sinned
and I know that you've cried
You can change your life
If you close your eyes
and confess all your sins inside
and let us live our lives
Let us live up
to what we're to become.
Maybe I'll grow up to be a leader
changing people's lives
But how would you know
you don't bother to give us a chance
to live fully
I know that you've sinned
and I know that you've cried
You can change your life
If you close your eyes
and confess all your sins inside
and let us live our lives
Let us live up
to what we're to become.
