Marcelo LuceroWorked for wages so very low
Kids who didn’t like immigrants
Went out hunting for someone like him
To torment and terrify
They wanted to terrify

Marcelo Lucero
To your murder we say no
No to the racism, hatred and fear
That took away your life so dear
We must remember your name
We will remember your name

Immigrants and native-born
To one race we all belong
All entitled to human rights
To work and live by our own lights
We must learn to live in peace
On earth in heavenly peace
