lyrics

Stop me if you’ve heard this before
Difficult birth, revolutionary war
Noble principles, a shining hour
Takes a long time to water those flowers

Human nature, conflict and greed
Half of the nation tries to secede
Union prevails, a great emancipator
Gunned down by hatred that seems to be greater

Strides were made, but progress is slow
Mansions on a hill but look down below
same discrimination with a different name
corporate prison industrial game

its not all bad news, there’s been some success
at its best, its all a work in progress
but so much has gone backwards of late
witness the rise of the orange face of hate

and now the plagues seem almost biblical
the challenges are formidable
but justice and truth are not invisible
a billion together can make a miracle

stop me if you heard this before
lose a few battles but win the war

(c) M. Skliar 2020
