A child's birthplace will not decide
if they feast or famine, learn or be put to labour.
Every hand will hold opportunity,
and poverty will crumble under the weight of equity.
A wife will not wear bruises as tradition,
nor will fists serve as her husband's language.
Families will not scatter like seeds
to lands where love is a foreign tongue,
as 'home' becomes a war zone.
And that's because, We took a stand,
a stand to break the old patterns,
to tear down the systems that chain us.
We formed a movement not for a moment,
but of momentum that sparked change.
For this day we dream of is only promised
to those who fight for it today.
So if not now, then when?
If not us, then who?
