We too sing ...America
We are your darker brothers who picked you fortunes and were paid in chains
We too sing ...America
We are your darker mothers who bury our boys when the policeman aims
We are your union brothers
Who spilt our blood for others
So that all might rise in class
We are the poor white folks
Your bankers took for jokes
And stole our futures in a flash
We too sing ...America
We are your muddled masses, your blending underclasses free to be slaves to usury
We too sing ...America
We are your working mothers, dealing love and suppers, and our country tis of thee
We are the young and restless
Who struggle to stay debtless
Just to learn an honest trade
We're the soldiers spun
In wars that can't be won
Forced to trade our limbs for pay
We too sing ...America
We are the ones you pepper spray when we march against tyrants and their schemes
We too sing ...America
We're from the land greed poisons fallow to grow its money lush and green
We are your working families
Who still remember when
One earned more than all our sum
We're the needy who prayed
Who you gave to the greedy to prey
On all of us too weak to run
Hell yeah, we've all been shattered
And yes our black lives matter
As color bleeds and takes our fall
It's time you woke up son
And see their smoking guns
Aim to divide and conquer all
We played by every rule
But they just changed the game
In a clever bait and switch
Bring us your fat, rested and greedy
Send back hungry, tired, needy
And hands on hearts we'll all pledge allegiance
...To the rich
