Not Made of Walls

Freedom is not made of walls
And not made of wires
It dampens not hope
But only inspires

It's a border of hope
And not one of hate
It reaches across the border
Saying, "Come on in, mate"

As much as it keeps out
The border lets in
As long as a background check
Finds no crime and no sin

The border should not deny
Those seeking peace
It should be the place
Where their troubles do cease
