Good Luck...
So you want to control us.
Whatever,
It won't work.
It never has.
Humans are stubborn.
We want to be free.
Free to make our own choices.
Free to earn our own money.
Free to fight.
Free to love.
Free to fail.
Free to succeed.
Yes, we humans are odd.
But we are strong.
We know what we want.
Or in this case, what we don't want.
Even if you have more power than us,
Or if you don't mind eliminating us entirely.
It doesn't matter.
Humans will resist you until the end.
We will never let you have our planet.
We will never let you influence our children.
We will never let you "Come in Peace."
Because no one ever really comes in peace.
Humans belong to no one.
We are all different,
yet we are one.
And we will never give in.
