lyrics

If you’re not worried about what’s going on, you’ve got yer head in the sand
Jan 6th was the Reichstag fire, a dry run for the stuff that is planned
Its not just suppressing votes, It’s who counts them and who’s in the room
Democracy is leaving, it may not come back soon

Our government’s tilted to the right, here’s some facts to prove that’s true
50 Senate Democrats represent 41 million more, then the 50 Republicans do
While the House is Gerrymandered, who rigs the rules calls the tune
Democracy is leaving, it may not come back soon

Low information voters, pandered to with easy solutions
Frustrated and fed up with our every institution
When the polio vaccine arrived, no one was anti-vax
Nobody spent their time writing websites, pushing fake alternate facts

Apolitical is amoral today, yeah the reality is that stark
Apathy is a burning flame, and its only gonna take a little spark
Dismiss this at your peril, go ahead think that America’s immune
Democracy is leaving it may not come back soon
