Thankful my favorite news site (Not The Bee) spotlighted this uplifting song. God bless your courage. May you be surrounded by brothers and sisters to help you when you're down.

about
After a year working for Rebel News, covering the pandemic, I felt inspired to write this song on behalf of all of the disenfranchised professionals that I have met along the way.
lyrics
I can't help but look around and feel like things are getting out of hand
We've been told to trust the science, but the science just doesn't make sense
They say it isn't mandatory, but they also say "your jab, or your job"
But if it doesn't stop the spread, it makes it feel like this is just a facade
What about the health care workers? What about the frontline nurses?
How quickly we forget that they were working 18 hours a day
What about informed consent? What about due diligence?
It seems like the country that I used to call home is surely slipping away
I can't help but look around and feel like things are slowly starting to change
'cuz even if you're triple vaccinated, know that segregation isn't the way
Freedom is a choice, and its available to all if we chose
But first things first, you gotta turn off the news
What about the health care workers? What about the frontline nurses?
How quickly we forget that they were working 18 hours a day
What about informed consent? What about due diligence?
It seems like the country that I used to call home is surely slipping away
If you're late to the party, there's plenty room at the table
This side don't discriminate
I'm calling on every single man, woman, child if they're able
It's time to take the streets and liberate
But please don't be a part of the problem, staying wilfully ignorant
'cuz there's just way too much at stake
Yo, it's OK to change your mind, you can admit you were wrong
'cuz where there's perfect Love, there ain't no shame
Heavenly Father, show me what I don't understand yet
I got my marching orders, I don't fully know the plans yet
Hold on to my Bible before bed, no it ain't banned yet
Did you know the makers of the vaccine make the Xanax?
I would never lean on corporations for morality
'cuz they put their profits over people for their salaries
I know trying to make you bend the knee for your normality
I know you're feeling all alone, but in reality
There's way more of us than them.
