Here' a little something I wrote for all my fellow Americans πΊπΈ called:
Red, White and You
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Red, White and Blue
Everybodyβs mad these days
Everybodyβs looking for someone to blame
Turn on the news and itβs all the same
Another fight and another name
People screaming in the street
Anger burning in the summer heat
Nobody listens
Nobody tries
Everybody just picks a side
We forgot how to talk
We forgot how to hear
Now the whole countryβs drowning in fear
Everybodyβs turning red
Mad as hell from the words being said
Blaming anybody white
Like thatβs gonna make the wrong things right
The angerβs loud
The hurt is true
But hate wonβt heal what weβve been through
Now the whole nationβs feeling blue
Because it's all about the Red, White and You!
Some folks carry pain from the past
Some folks feel judged for things they never had
Everybodyβs pointing somewhere else
But nobodyβs looking at themselves
We keep fighting over skin and pride
While the truth gets buried on both sides
If we keep tearing each other apart
There wonβt be much left of this heart
We forgot weβre neighbors
We forgot weβre friends
We keep breaking what we should mend
Everybodyβs turning red
Mad as hell from the words being said
Blaming anybody white
Like thatβs gonna make the wrong things right
The angerβs loud
The hurt is true
But hate wonβt heal what weβve been through
Now the whole nationβs feeling blue
Because it's all about the Red, White and You!
Red is the anger
White is the blame
Blue is the sadness
Running through the veins
We can keep on yelling
We can keep the fight
Or we can face the truth
And try to make it right
Everybodyβs turning red
Mad as hell from the words being said
Blaming anybody white
Like thatβs gonna make the wrong things right
The pain is real
The scars are too
But we need more love to make it through
Now the whole nationβs feeling blue
Because it's all about the Red, White and You!
Red from the anger
White from the blame
Blue from the hurt
We all feel the same
One nation divided
but still trying to see it through
Don't make it about you
Make it about the Red, White and Blue!
