Nothing But A Dream

No one wants to lose their place in
line
Conceding all we had in better
times
The Fear is real of being left behind
So, struggle for position in this new
paradigm
(Chorus)
We gave up on the American dream
Now we need a little cash and a simple scheme
To make it through the morning
Make it through the day, And the dark of night
In the USA
Took a knee to say he wasn’t proud
Despite the boos of protest from the crowd
And The man who swore that he’d defend our
rights
Instead condemned the moment as a slight
And demanded that the boss’s levy fines
Against anyone who dared to speak their mind
(Chorus)
I worry ‘bout the damage that’s been done
And the troubled waters further down the stream
Pull the ores, the worst is yet to come
I pray that this is nothing but a dream
Now my senator won’t even take my call
When I try to tell him how I see it all
I need a doctor more than we need a wall
Lord knows I need a break, more than some
need it all
(Chorus)
