who are we

Who are we to decide

Who lives and who dies?

Who are we to toy

with other beings’ lives?

We think we are so clever

We think we are so strong

But if we were stripped down

we’d realize we are so wrong

Soft and thin we are

Easy to rip apart

Without our clothes and our money

we wither away

So who are we to decide

whose lives to save?

Who are we to define

intelligence or worth?

Who are we but just another

species on this Earth?

Whether a human or a pig

we’re all just as small

and just as big

Just as willing to fight to live

We are all fighting to live
