My neighbor has been taken away.
My roof is leaking.
My neighbor has been taken away.
What was torn, torn apart
Must be restored.

Alternate singing with someone reading eyewitness accounts or other testimonials of the ICE atrocities in recent months. Such as this testimony, given to the Minnesota Legislature in February:
“Since enforcement operations escalated, schools have reported ICE vehicles parked near buildings and in school parking lots, agents using binoculars to look into classrooms, armed individuals making arrests in neighborhoods where children walk to school, unmarked vehicles detaining community members just outside school grounds, agents boxing in buses and waiting at bus stops, staff detained on their way to work and asked for asked for proof of citizenship, minors stopped or detained without their parents, and families transferred out of state.” (My name is Joey Cienian, and I serve as Executive Director of the Minnesota Association of Charter Schools) Feb 2026
