I Am They!

I Am They!

"I am They”! 

“They” 
Are the Irish 
The Black 
And the Jew 
“They’re 
The innocent 
All thrown 
In the stew 

"They” 
Are your family 
Your neighbor 
Your friends 
“They’re” 
Used by bigots 
As weapons 
Again 

“They" 
Can be anyone 
Anyone 
You choose 
“They’re” 
Used as fodder 
“They’re” an old 
Racist tool

It’s heard and it’s loud
Not saying a word
Says, I will allow
