LAND OF THE FREE

Elijah Cummings and his brother John Lewis

Are crossing the bridge

To show the rest of us truth is

We can’t try to hide it

When they were beaten with sticks

By white power police

and white nationalist pricks

Those people in Portland

Ain’t going away

Trump can send all his goons

But they’re still there to stay

Veterans, fathers and teachers

Can hold up their signs

Until racism and hate

Are not nursery rhymes

There’s no Christian love

There’s no plenty of Jesus

When white master slave masters

Still try to enslave us

Just being Caucasian

Doesn’t mean we can’t be

Standing by our black brothers

In the land of the free

There can’t be more teargassing

There can’t be more fascism

Without us indoctrinating

Some dumb Trump communism

We won’t stand idly by

We won’t let this “just be“

You won’t break us with Jesus

In the land of the free.
