A little ditty written in the heat of the summer during the height of the BLM protests and Trump rallies and Covid spikes.
lyrics
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny under the sun
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny what have we done?
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny people on the run
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny rubber bullets and guns
People, people, that’s who we are
You call us radical, we carry the scars
People, people, mothers in arms
You call us far left, our tears spread far
Eternal vigilance
The price of liberty
That’s why we march
That’s why we shout
We will be heard
That’s why we plug it in
Either Black Lives Matter
Or you better look again
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny under the sun
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny what have we done?
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny people on the run
Tyranny, tyranny, tyranny rubber bullets and guns
