lyrics

The government is not my friend
The government is not your friend
Controlling lives like we ain't human, don't care about the way we live
Separating families, it's all on them to choose what's next
They think about the case problems, don't care about the way we feel

I'm a victim of the system
My family's been separated
Crying faces, hearts are breaking
Too much pain for a little girl

Been in for over a month
The awkward is now a routine
Yet, we're not quite used to it
No one should be in a case like this
Going back and forth and back
Surprise calls every now and then
We're doing all we can to help, but the government doesn't give a shit

I'm a victim of the system
My family's been separated
Exhausted, tension, rent is due now
Too much stress for a mother

I'm a victim of the system
My family's been separated
Exhausted, tension, rent is due now
Too much stress for a mother

I'm a victim of the system
My family's been separated
Crying faces, hearts are breaking
Too much pain for a little girl
Too much stress for a mother
Too much pain for a little girl
Too much stress for a mother
