Track title: The Day After

In the land of the free Where once we could be
Who we are without fear or decree
but now it seems our rights are up for sale
to the highest bidder with no regard at all

We’re watching democracy go down in flames
as corporate interests take control and shame is claimed
the disabled, L B Q T I A + and neurodivergent too
are left behind with broken promises
and nothing to do

Congress sold out to the highest bidder’s call
SCOTUS justices with ethics that fall
we’re governed by greed and a lack of care
for the people and the future we should share

We’re watching democracy go down in flames
as corporate interests take control and shame is claimed
the disabled, L B Q T I A + and neurodivergent too
are left behind with broken promises
and nothing to do

We thought we were free but now we’re confined
by the walls of oppression that are designed
to keep us quiet and in line
but our voices will rise and our rights we’ll redefine

The system’s broken, it’s time to take a stand
for equality, justice, and a brighter land
we won’t be silenced, we won’t be ignored
our voices will echo until our rights are restored

We’re watching democracy go down in flames
as corporate interests take control and shame is claimed
the disabled, L B Q T I A + and neurodivergent too
are left behind with broken promises
and nothing to do

So let’s rise up and let our voices be heard
for the people, by the people, not for a select few
let’s take back our democracy and make it new
a place where all are equal and love is true
