How can a Vote (Mean more than the Truth)

How can a vote
Mean more than the truth

It’s what we teach our kids
To tell the truth

A bedrock belief
It’s what we all stand for

Truth will set you free
It’ll set us free

It’s all about power
Truth doesn’t matter
Try and tell my kids
To be on the up and up

And they see liars and thiefs
Not live up to us
What should they think
When it’s up to us

To not give in to the noise that’s all around
Facts are sound
Since when do we believe
In fantasies
And conspiracies

It’s all about power
Truth doesn’t matter

So you like your man
But he’s a true liar
You’re gonna pass that down
To your younger one’s

It’s not about power
But just to be cruel

Gotta wave that flag
Off the back of your
Pickup…

What does that do to help me or my
Family

You have 3 flags
tRump the father and disorder

We the people are pissed
And I’m really pissed
At these losers that let us down
A carnival barker
And all his clowns
