Bring Back Our Girls

Bring Back Our Girls!!
To their mothers and fathers,
to their sisters, and brothers.
We know ONE escaped you,
but we want ALL the others!

Bring Back Our Girls!!
To the people who LOVE them!
To the people who NEED them!
The ones who pray for them EVERY night,
and wake up praying that you've freed them!!

Bring Back Our Girls!!
So that they can one day
be wives and mothers!
And, they'll be doctors and lawyers,
if I had my druthers!

You Need To
Bring Back Our Girls!!
Or, we're coming for you!
You'll find no place to hide.
And, you'll have nowhere to run to!

BRING BACK OUR GIRLS!!
Even with innocence lost.
Or, we'll see you all burn,
No matter the cost!

Bring Back Our Girls!
BRING BACK OUR GIRLS!
Please,... just...
Bring Back Our Girls!
