Unreality
Hey new president is your wig too tight
Nothing that has left your mouth sounds like it is right
Maybe it’s the chemicals in your tanning spray
Clouding your integrity leeching in your brain
I think that you’re confused your words don’t make it true
Spitting out these fallacies doesn’t change reality
Hey new president are your balls that small
Forcing you to compensate as we watch appalled
Did a brown boy beat you up when you were a kid
Holding grudges all your life is now way to exist
I think that you’re confused your words don’t make it true
Spitting out these fallacies doesn’t change reality
I know I should be angry but I am just confused
Sometimes in the wee hours I wonder what to do
I think I’d think it funny even quite absurd
If you weren’t the devil destroying this good earth

Baby you can have it all, baby you can build a wall
You wear a suit, you wear a sneer, you are peddling hubris and fear (2X)
Does it make you feel complete sending out a hateful tweet
Tell us another alternative fact, smoke and mirrors to distract (2X)
Your pants are on fire
Stakes couldn’t be higher
You know that divided we fall
We gotta show up
We gotta shout out
We gotta stand up for all
Is this reality tv? You are not the boss of me
Commander in Chief’s a megalomaniac and when you grab this pussy this pussy grabs back
Grab this pussy this pussy grabs back
Honey play to your base, honey lie to my face
Liberty and justice under attack but when you grab this pussy this pussy grabs back,
Grab this pussy this pussy grabs back
We are the sirens
We won’t be silent
Ain’t gonna kneel down and crawl
We gonna show up
We gonna shout out
We gonna stand up for all
How can we bridge this divide
Each in our tribes
No compromise
How can ever break through
Agree on what’s true
In a culture of fear and lies
(we need a-)
1.Culture of kindness 2.Culture of kindness 3.Culture of kindness
Instead of this blindness Instead of this blindness Instead of this blindness
We gotta stand up for all You know that divided we fall This is a clarion call

FYQ
You are not my queen
You won't be my king
Fuck your silver spoon
And your privilege
See how they run See how they hide
Like three blind mice
Running for their lives
I won't let you consume me
You cannot subjugate me
You think I'll lay down for you?
I won't let you consume me You cannot subjugate me
You think I'll lay down for you?

Snowflake" by Craig Werth, February 28, 2017
I’m a Snowflake,
I’m a Lib-tard,
I didn’t fare so well out in the school yard,
so it goes, with these tender hearts,
in the company of those who would tear them apart.
I’m a Snowflake,
I’m a Lib-tard,
Sometimes I worry late at night and I pray hard,
that your daughters, and your granddaughters, too,
can run faster than those men,
who cast their vote with you.
I’m a Snowflake,
I’m a Lib-tard,
I am creative, I’m a wild card,
and I’m sitting here, in the nursing home,
singing songs for your mother so she isn’t all alone.
I’m a Snowflake,
I’m a Lib-tard,
I’ll my best to serve the others while I’m standing guard,
so it goes, with these tender hearts,
in the company of those who would tear them apart.
in the company of those who would tear us apart.

Listenin' Up
Ain't been this bad in a while
Ain't been this bad in a while
So perhaps we were due to stand on trial
Ain't been this bad in a while
These people, this sky, and that dirt
These people, this sky, and that dirt
And all full of love, but right now we're hurt
These people, this sky, and that dirt
The statues in your hometown
All the statues in your hometown
You best make good on their word or take 'em down
The statues in your hometown
So listen up for what you don't
I'm listenin' up for what I don't know
Sure, it new to us now, give it Hell and go
And listen up for what you don't know
Listen up for what you don't know

Return to the home that feeds our soul
We’ll know who we are
Welcome the knife that could save our life
We’ll know who we are
Insist fires cease, wave a flag in peace
We’ll know who we are
Strengthen our spine, cross the finish line
We’ll know who we are
Release someone’s heart,
when we’ve grown apart
We’ll know who we are
Until that time, we’ll hide behind
the smiles they thought were real
And all the times we say we’re fine
but that’s not how we really feel
Turning words into action, that’s
a way we heal all the times we say
we’re fine but that’s not how we really feel
Refuse, don’t give in to everyone’s whims
We’ll know who we are
Shed the old skin, grow the light from within
We’ll know who we are
Demand a fair raise, a living wage
We’ll know who we are
Set some aside for our neighbors to thrive
We’ll know who we are
Until that time, we’ll hide behind
the smiles they thought were real
And all the times we say we’re fine
but that’s not how we really feel
Turning words into action, that’s a way
we heal all the times we say we’re fine,
but that’s not how we really feel
Put the last drink down on the bar
Ooh ooh Ooh ooh
We’ll know who we are
Forsake a faith to find our own way
Ooh ooh Ooh ooh
We’ll know who we are
Move to a new town, one-way bound
Ooh ooh Ooh ooh
We’ll know who we are
Accept a death, share a final breath
Ooh ooh Ooh ooh
We’ll know who we are
Until that time, we’ll hide behind
the smiles they thought were real
And all the times we say we’re fine
but that’s not how we really feel
Turning words into action, that’s a way through fear
and all the times we say we’re fine,
but that’s not how we really feel
Stand up!
We know we've had enough
We say we're fine but we're extraordinary
Don't hold back!
Cause of what we think we lack
No one’s approval will be necessary
All the times we say we're fine
when we're not fine, we’re saying
We don't really matter
Stand tall!
Be true to who we are and we'll awaken
To our eternal power!
To our internal power!
To our eternal power!

No Birds
what does it mean that the birds disappeared
what does it mean that icicles wouldn’t form
was it worse than we’d heard?
what does it mean the hills turned inward
what does it mean and the mountains withdrew
was it worse than we’d heard?
what does it mean that kings are gone
what does it mean that fairness is dead
was it worse that we heard?
what does it mean, this disconnect
what does it mean, this nervousness
was it worse than we’d heard?
what does it mean everything’s got weight
what does it mean the air is so thick
was it worse than we’d heard?
was it worse than we’d heard?
was it worse than we’d heard?
sure you can, you do
but why do you want to?
grab an extra coat
because the things that used to float
ARE COMING DOWN

Dispossessed
Stars are made irrelevant I can barely pay the rent
Every night I read the news and go to bed confused
Watching as the scene unfolds I’m losing all control
Everything has gone to shit how do we see through it
There’s not a stratosphere far enough away from here
To get me where I need to go
Feels like I’m hovering floating up here suffering
Watching as the world explodes below
Words are so divisive I’m on autopilot
Sometimes I get so mad I can’t talk to my own dad
There is such a disconnect we are dispossessed
Everywhere around me it rings so profoundly
There’s not a stratosphere far enough away from here
To get me where I need to go
Feels like I’m hovering floating up here suffering
Watching as the world explodes below
Maybe there’s a recipe maybe we need therapy
Maybe we should stop and start again
I don’t have a fucking clue how do we keep chugging through
Blow the whole thing up and make amends

Fountain of Youth Author: Chris George
“I’m going to protest growing old Slowing down and feeling cold
Achy bones and achy back Hard of hearing and heart attacks
No more wrinkles, no more creams, no more loss of self-esteem
I’m going to boycott Geritol Beta blockers and Tylenol
Doctor Visits, and MRI’sI’d trade them all to rejuvenize
No more aging, no more shots, no more pain and no skin spots
We’re going to rise up in one voice We want solutions, we want choice
The golden years have lost their luster
It’s beginning to feel a bit like Custer”
No shrinking brain and no more falls No more body part recalls
We’re out to find the fountain of youth We’ll carry signs and speak the truth
Our numbers growing more each day One goal , one song, down with decay
No more aging, no more shots, no more pain and no skin spots

Fear Itself
We like to blame someone else for feeling this way
Easier to rage than to stop and get your head straight
His angry face makes our faces angry
And who can tell the difference anyway
I wanna be grateful, not hateful
Don’t wanna let the hate in
Grateful, not hateful
Don’t wanna let the fear win
We all know who the real fake news is
Tweeting lies from the oval office
It’s harder than ever to get a grip
But truth matters more than ignorant bliss
I wanna be grateful, not hateful
Don’t wanna let the hate in
Grateful, not hateful
Don’t wanna let the fear win
There’s a better way than click and share bait
And I’m not gonna bury my head in the sand
With love in my heart I will participate
And with love in yours we’ll make our stand
I want to be grateful, not hateful
Don’t wanna let the hate in
Grateful, not hateful
We will not let the fear win

All I Have Is Love
to the people that feel afraid
to the women that march on parade
to the young that want to know how
All I have Is Love For You Now
All I have Is Love For You Now
to the cities that can’t drink their water
to the fathers protecting their daughters
to the old that don’t know how
All I have Is Love For You Now
All I have Is Love For You Now
to the strangers that
can’t come though
it doesn’t mean we
don’t love you
to the scared that
won’t let them in
cowards and puppets to
an orange kingpin Em
to the blacks afraid to walk
to the press afraid to talk
to the hopeless, hope empty now
All I have Is Love For You Now
All I have Is Love For You Now

“We Rise Up (We Won't Build A Wall)”
By Christiana Athena
Verse 1:
Grey skies in November
Filter through our minds.
Drifting through time,
Like we’ve got no lifeline.
Cold in our bones
Sends us shivering home
To nestle and burrow and atone.
Pre Chorus:
You take the hard work and you burn it down,
But we won’t let you stamp it out.
As you can see we are all around,
And we’re rising up from the ground.
Chorus:
We won’t back down
We won’t let up
by day one
We were already fed up
We won’t build a wall
We won’t build a wall
We hold each other up
So we don’t fall
Verse 2:
Like seeds in the ground that you tried to bury,
We rise up with even more fury.
We honor the heroes that came before,
And over time we thrive even more.
Pre Chorus
Chorus
Verse 3:
You fuel new generations of warriors,
Guilded further, fighting like love soldiers.
With a message of peace and love,
With our hands we lift each other up above.
Pre Chorus
Bridge:
You can hear we are rising up
You can hear we rise up
Verse 4:
We rise above the fog, the lies,
the government ties,
your bought and sold allies.
We change the world
and we find the sunshine,
Because it’s our time
Chorus:
We won’t build a wall
We won’t build a wall
We hold each other up
So we don’t fall

The Hypothetical
Now you say I never turn you on like a radio
Now you say I never turn you on like a chemical
Nothing in the world ever seemed so wrong it’s unacceptable
Worried the results are too far gone it’s hypothetical
I get political it’s unavoidable these days
I know sometimes we don’t see eye to eye
And I can be inflexible
From where I sit the blatancy
Is well past incredible
Remember when we thought that nothing in the world
Could ever get between us
We laughed when we read that men are from mars
And women are from Venus
Lately people seem to say what they want
And somehow it makes it true
Every single day we’re made afraid
With this narrowing view
No one in my circle has ever accused me
Of being an optimist
But people are yelling out of car windows
Thinking they’re anonymous
Now you say I never turn you on like a radio
Now you say I never turn you on like a chemical
Nothing in the world ever seemed so wrong it’s unacceptable
Worried the results are too far gone it’s hypothetical
I get political it’s unavoidable these days
Everyone seems to love watching a train wreck
They say it’s human nature what would you expect
Welcome to the way the world erases itself
Maybe we should say our farewells
Please believe the things you see please believe in me
Know that what I say is true I am still in love with you
