    Lifeline, Citizen Cope

    March 27, 2017 /

    click me to view youtube.   When you’re so long gone, you can’t help yourself When you’re so dead wrong Let alone no one else Well the children still dying in the streets The babies still living with disease The cops got guns, the poor folks got sons Who work for Mr. Franklin every week If you’ve come looking for hard times Hard times ain’t hard to find Cause we’ve been given that lifeline Only once in a lifetime Baby we were born Maybe we were born To be sure … to endure When the storm comes Got them sad eyes Got them cat eyes Got your angels tired From…

There is no legal significance attached to the term “illegal immigrant.” There are, however, serious social and political consequences for the repeated use of this term and the necessary dehumanization it brings.
