Americas Animal Issues
We cannot speak for ourselves
Everyday our kind is hurt in various ways
We have few that want to help
Many of you stand and watch us get beat
I cannot defend myself
If I fight back and win I get put down
If I fail to win it all gets worse
They take it out on my sibling or my mother
We are stuffed in cages
They make us have offspring after offspring
My babies are taken away so quickly
My babies are used as bait
They fight over which dog gets to kill my baby
They bet on who may survive the massacre
Others are more lucky
We are stuffed into pens for you to watch
They turn into prisoners
We are no longer free we are puppets
They forget to feed us
No one notices
Our final days our the worst
We are in such pain
But one thing keeps us going
That maybe one day our babies may finally be free again
