Listen to the song. Passionate. Powerful. A Summary of Four Years of the Trump occupation of the White House. He may soon be evicted.
Many people in the USA will be happy to help Mr and Mrs Trump carry their stuff into a removal truck.
Here are the lyrics followed by the video clip. 3 mins 17 seconds. Music and film at its best to make a statement.
Commander-in-Chief.
Were you ever taught when you were young
If you mess with things selfishly, they’re bound to come undone?
I’m not the only one
That’s been affected and resented every story you’ve spun, and I’m a lucky one
‘Cause there are people worse off that have suffered enough
Haven’t they suffered enough?
But you can’t get enough of shutting down systems for personal gain
Fighting fires with flayers and praying for rain
Do you get off on pain?
We’re not pawns in your game
Commander in Chief, honestly
If I did the things you do, I couldn’t sleep
Seriously, do you even know the truth?
We’re in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in Chief
How does it feel to still be able to breathe?
We were taught when we were young
If we fight for what’s right, there won’t be justice for just some
Won’t give up, stand our ground
We’ll be in the streets while you’re bunkering down
Loud and proud, best believe
We’ll still take a knee while you’re…
Commander in Chief, honestly
If I did the things you do, I couldn’t sleep
Seriously, do you even know the truth?
We’re in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in Chief
How does it feel to still be able to breathe?
Breathe
Be able to breathe
Won’t give up, stand our ground
We’ll be in the streets while you’re bunkering down
Won’t give up, stand our ground
We’ll be in the streets while you’re…
Commander in Chief, honestly
If I did the things you do, I couldn’t sleep
Seriously, do you even know the truth?
We’re in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in Chief
How does it feel to still be able to breathe?
Able to breathe
One of the most beautiful poems and song and voice and arrangement
I ever heard
May it reverberate every nation, city, village, street, school, farm, working place, church, temple, wood
Detention center
Camps
Prisons
May it break the prisons
of our soul bird open
and may
the big flying
never cease
to start
