I woke up for the first time
Dbm
In a long time feeling alright
Dbm
Then something don't feel right
Dbm
Why do I feel like the war just began?
B
What do I believe when?
B
Satan be evil but angels be sleazy
B
It don't get no easier when (Whatchu you talking about)
B
They change like the wind and pretend like it's breezy
Dbm
Shit ain't alright, I waited all night
Dbm
To hear some good news, but this just all right
Dbm
I feel my whole life was one big car ride
Dbm
And every left turn, I felt the far right (You damn right)

B
This ain't the best but at least it's progress
B
So go ahead and have fun tonight
B
Because, tomorrow this blessing will become a lesson

Dbm
Fell on some hard times and when y'all die

They resurrect them soft lies
Dbm
That big blue wall we all climb
Dbm E
Then walk along these red lines
Dbm
See, I ain't with that
Dbm
When they politicin'
Dbm B
Y'all sit back and just sign petitions
Dbm
These mishaps ain't of the mystics
Dbm
Add up generations of long division
Dbm
Do you feel it? Does it effect you?
Dbm B
Out of sight, out of mind, that's a blurry ass view
B
When we kneeling y'all act real indignant
B
But you ain't say shit
B
When Derek Chauvin did it, bitch

A
It all falls down, once again
[Bridge]
Dbm
Now that I got your attention
Dbm
I know we can do better than this
Dbm
But the first thing we have to agree on is that we
Dbm
We are no better than them
Dbm
If we are nothing more
Dbm
Than cogs in a machine
Dbm
There must be something more
Dbm
To America than a dream
[Pre-Chorus]
