Everyone Is Part of a Whole

What's the fault of the children
Born from the undocumented parents
They have rights to be registered
Where they were born and live
The rights are not limited
Not even those who are documented
They are the citizens of the world

Why can't they be accommodated
Even simply for a birth certificate
What is important they become "legal"
Although there are no "illegal migrants"
What happen to the system
Let's "get everyone in the picture".
Because everyone is part of a whole!
