    We are like tiny drops of water,

    In the vast ocean-blue world.

    Then, who are we to segregate?

    Who are we to build walls?

    Walls that break down humanity,

    Walls that tear apart countries;

    Who are we to put those walls?

    Was this the plan of the almighty?

    Who are we to judge our brothers

    based on their origins?

    We all come from the same womb

    And our mother: The Earth.

    So, let no man, woman, or child get killed,

    by the very walls we build.

    Never let our soldiers die

    in futile wars based on hate.

    Let no child lose his childhood

    And ensure no woman loses her dignity

    to the very walls, we build

    based on our identity.

    Let’s, for once, think like a human

    And bring out our wrecking balls.

    Let’s break the cruelest dividers we built,

    Let’s break these toxic walls.
