Renan Raps for Farm Workers

Renan Raps for Farm Workers
These are the lyrics to latest Renan tune under the name of Sai
65 years we’ve been importing men as cattle
while we rattle their existence like they’re enemies in battle. 
From the Bracero to the H-2A we make them work and
then we make them pay with prison if they wish to stay. 
Pick that fruit!  cut the cabbage, milk the cow
quick fast ‘cause we think of them as savage;
call them illegal if they have no working papers
then convince the population that there eagle came to rape us.
Or is it ego that prevents us from surrendering to equal treatment?
logic is a lonely friend.
Is it predicting end to all existence that has made us distant
from the punch that makes the breathless bend?
Play pretend with politicians if you wish
but I don’t want to fish their fish, I rather play with ammunition. 
My deadly weapon is my word and
I will have their stories heard before a wall assumes submission. 
-Sai-
