Let Freedom Ring
Our country 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
To you I sing;
White men signing abortion laws
That kill women for no cause
Can you not see your flaws?
Let freedom ring
He said he'd make America great again
But as people die he says Amen
Racists jump when he says when
Who is safe? Businessmen
Let freedom ring
Crooked cops shoot to kill
African Americans find no thrill
In burying family up on the hill
America, where is your human will?
Let freedom ring
Rape culture is the norm
The lies come in swarms
Victims don't need to conform
Rapists are the thunderstorm
Let freedom ring
Most terrorists are alt-rights
Muslims fight ISIS with all of their might
In their home countries they put up the fight
But but for this? America has no appetite
Let freedom ring
Punch a Nazi in the face
They think death to all Jews is ace
They put the Holocaust in a trophy case
America, defend Jewish lives in any place
Let freedom ring
It is our fight to save these lives
Don't put them in forgotten archives
Resistance is what always survives
Let freedom ring
