Sonorous Rising - Berta Lives

Exaggerated fear of a caravan's progression
The Northern Triangle is a destination of oppression
Deriving from this nation's monetary obsession
Crying invasion when they want to eat
While you benefit from their defeat
In La Esperanza life is stolen at night
With Berta in their sights
Assassination greed's property
Strangulation under forced poverty
Ascending to martyr as she died
Fueling the fight to stay alive
Empower all people to be free
From injustice and
U.S. policy
Beneficiaries
Coup d'etat by the military
Neo-liberal agenda
To be recolonized
By the Pentagon Republic
Honduras unifies
Against socioeconomic inequality's genocide
In La Esperanza life is stolen at night
With Berta in their sights
Assassination greed's property
Strangulation under forced poverty
Ascending to martyr as she died
Fueling the fight to stay alive
Empower all people to be free
From injustice and
U.S. policy
Beneficiaries
Coup d'etat by the military
Neo-liberal agenda
To be recolonized
