I’m sure you’ve heard the price of everything is going up
They say Vladimir Putin is to blame for our bad luck
And the culture war continues to rage hard and mean
Kind of reminds me of what my body went through when I was a teen
Trust in our media’s at an all-time low
They only have themselves to blame for that, though
No one asked them to divide and lie
But they keep on truckin’, and I think we know why
The stars and stripes keep getting drug through the mud
Causes a big stir, but can’t imagine Old Glory cares much
She’s seen and heard worse, yet keeps flying high
A lot of men and women died so we could speak our minds
Doesn’t matter what the current thing is — it always feels like a sequel
Followed by the suits telling us to get in line or else remain fearful
The elite demean, mislead and force everyone else to sacrifice
Then they break their own rules, demanding adherence to faulty advice
I wonder who we’re supposed to listen to
Who do you trust when freedom is taken from you
Maybe it’s the verified strangers online
Or maybe it’s your gut and belief in the divine
Some look to Rogan or those Obama bros
Not sure a podcast can bring a country out of the throes
Even Jon Stewart’s back to turning our differences into a game
He knows it’s all rigged, but at least he still has his fame
You’re not wrong to worry or feel you’ve been abused
That’s what happens when a leaderless country abandons you
But let’s not take it out on each other to stoke the flame
It’s unlikely a small business or your neighbor is to blame
There’s one thing that’s worked from the beginning of time
It’s the one thing they tell you to get out of your mind
Love is the answer, and you know that I’m right
God didn’t send us here to help politicians fight
