I woke up for the first time
Cbm
In a long time feeling alright
Cbm
Then something don't feel right

Why do I feel like the war just began?

They change like the wind and pretend like it's breezy
Cbm

Cbm
And every left turn, I felt the far right (You damn right)

So go ahead and have fun tonight
A
Because, tomorrow this blessing will become a lesson

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

When Derek Chauvin did it, bitch

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