Why steal from them if they give us everything
Why kill them if they're the ones who gave us life
Why terrorise them if they kept us safe since birth
Why are they not safe even when in their homes
Why do we not realise that it is our turn
Our turn to take care of them
Our turn to stop abusing them
Our turn to say no to their killings
Our turn to be urged to take charge
Be urged to protect the kind that gave you life
Be urged to be a good example for your son or pals
Be urged not leave a void in someone's heart
Let us protect them, let us love them
They are our mothers, our sisters
