We Raise Our Voices

WE RAISE OUR VOICES

What do I care about?
Every day, every minute, Make a choice!
Remain silent? Speak out?
How do I use my voice?

I raise my voice
For my health and education
x For families in migration
For anyone who needs my help
My sisters, my brothers, and for myself

I raise my voice
When I see my friends fighting
When I see something that needs righting
When I hear my neighbor calling
When I see our leaders falling

I raise my voice for my people (add your own country)
For my people all around the world!

What do you care about?
Every day, every minute, Make a choice!
Remain silent? Speak out?
How do you use your voice?
