(Intro – Spoken, crowd chanting “No Walls! No Fear!”)
They eat the fruit… (crowd: “Who picked it?”)
We did.
They walk the roads… (crowd: “Who laid it?”)
We did.
They live the dream… (crowd: “Who built it?”)
WE DID.
⸻
(Verse 1 – Groove riff under rap)
Steel in the sun, sweat in the ground
We built your cities, you tear us down
Hands in the fields, blood in the steel
You take the profit, we get the deal
Work the jobs you never would
Break our backs just to call it good
Point to the border and spread your hate
While your empire runs on the work we make
⸻
(Pre-Chorus – Crowd Call & Response)
No walls! (No fear!)
We’re still! (Right here!)
No walls! (No fear!)
We built! (For years!)
⸻
(Chorus – All-out, with crowd yelling along)
🔥 We are the backbone, breakin’ the chains!
(Crowd: “OUR SWEAT! OUR HANDS!”)
Built your name!
(Crowd: “THIS LAND! THIS GROUND!”)
From the dirt to the sky, we hold this ground —
No border’s gonna break us down!
⸻
(Verse 2 – Faster rap, fists in the air)
From the railroads west to the southern fields
We gave this country the blood it steals
Cook your food, raise your kids
Fight your wars, do the work you did
Then you call us thieves, call us swarms
But we weathered every storm
You want the labor, not the life
But we’re still here — we will not hide
⸻
(Bridge – Spoken to screamed)
You want the land (crowd: “WITHOUT THE PEOPLE!”)
The crops (crowd: “WITHOUT THE HANDS!”)
The profit (crowd: “WITHOUT THE PRICE!”)
But we are not invisible
We are the spine
We are the rise
(Screamed breakdown with crowd roar)
WE BUILT IT! (We built it!)
WE BLEED IT! (We bleed it!)
WE LIVE IT! (We live it!)
WE KEEP IT! (We keep it!)
⸻
(Final Chorus – Band & crowd together)
🔥 We are the backbone, breakin’ the chains!
(Crowd: “OUR SWEAT! OUR HANDS!”)
Built your name!
(Crowd: “THIS LAND! THIS GROUND!”)
From the dirt to the sky, we hold this ground —
No border’s gonna break us down!
🔥 We are the truth they can’t deny!
(Crowd: “WE RISE! WE WORK! WE UNIFY!”)
This land is ours — we’ve paid the price!
Immigrant blood is the heart of life!
