Honor thy country in spite of your fate.
Thousands of people convicted by race
Hopeless unrest followed months of despair
Etched forever in memory.It's not forgotten
--- It's not forgotten
Wartime procedure conjured by fear
Burn written treasures innocent wares
They believed hidden secrets between foreign lines
Loyalty clouded unjustly.
Grey image picture the cold barren site
Capture the stillness of mourning
Thrown into madness confusion of rights
Ageless faces are numbered.
Prayers cried for strength soldiers die holding pride
To prove their trust and devotion.
Silent screams left unspoken. Silent dreams left unbroken.
Honor thy country in spite of your fate.
Thousands of people evicted by race
Hopeless unrest followed months of despair
Etched forever in memory.
It's not forgotten … no … no … Minedoka
It's not forgotten … no … no … Heart Mountain
It's not forgotten … no … no … Manzanar
……. NO!
