Despiertan de nuevo
This is our time
To amplify the voices of our ancestors
On what was once their land
Es tiempo
To remind this nation
That we too are to be included in that promise
Of freedom and equality
Poder
Let’s take back our collective power
Our choices
Voces
Our wombs
Our identity
Our vote
We are a minority-majority
Millones y millones
A homecoming long overdue
And it’s time to clean house
Fuerza
We helped build this nation with our hands
Use those hands in our favor
Make that change
Porque es tiempo
Tu voto es tu voz
And this is not the time to whisper
–V. Alexandra de F. Szoenyi
