Lead With Love


You gotta put one foot in front of the other
and lead with love.
Put one foot in front of the other
and lead with love.

Don’t give up hope.
You’re not alone.
Don’t you give up.
Keep movin’ on.
Lift up your eyes.
Don’t you despair.

Look up ahead.
The path is there.
I know you’re scared
And I’m scared too.
But here I am, right next to you.

(Ain't Gonna Let Nobody) Turn Me Around

Ain't gonna let nobody, turn me round,
Turn me round, turn me round,
Ain't gonna let nobody, turn me round,
 I just keep on a-walkin', keep on a-talkin', 
Marching on to freedom land.

It’s Okay To Change Your Mind

(A song for ICE agents)

It’s okay to change your mind
Show us your courage
Leave this behind
It’s okay to change your mind
And you can join us
Join us here anytime.

We Will Protect Each Other

We will protect each other
We will be everything we need
 The good land, and the wild water
 The whole sky...is always on our side.

 

(This song was written for migrant justice work in California and across the country. Used to ground the group in our commitment to each other and also to remember that the lands, waters and skies are always on OUR side.)

Hold On  

Hold on, hold on
My dear ones
Here comes the dawn.

We Are American - We Have No King

Were you here from the start?
Or come over the sea?
Our home is America
Land of the free.
Free to be different
To let your heart sing:
We are American, 
We Have No King. 

We want no king,
No commissar.
Democracy matters,
That is who we are.
A nation of Law
Let freedom ring!
We are American, 
We Have No King. 

No nation is perfect, 
And neither are we,
But we keep on trying, 
We dare to be free.
Together we march, 
United we sing: 
We are American, 
We Have No King. 
Yes,
We are American, 
We Have No King!

Give Peace A Chance

All we are saying
Is give peace a chance.
