That’s America

By L. Gallatin

Lyrics

It’s not about who’s in or out,
Race, religion, code, or creed
All for one and one for all.
That’s how
America should be.

It’s not about where you were born,
Citizen versus refugee.
It’s about our common dreams.
That’s how America should be.

It’s not about cis versus trans,
Them or they or he or she.
It’s liberty, of thee I sing.
That’s how America should be.

It’s not just about the floods or fires,
Rising temps or rising seas.
It’s about sustaining life.
That’s how America should be.

Pay the rent or pay the bills,
Healthcare versus whether you eat.
It’s about the right to thrive.
That’s how America should be.

It’s not about blue versus red,
Young or old or white or black.
It’s billionaires against all of us.
It’s time
To take our country back.
