Good Trouble
Never let ‘em tell you you’re too young to know.
Some gave blood for the right to vote.
Speak truth to power and get in the way.
If it’s not right, it’s not fair, have something to say
And like John said, get in good trouble
And like John said, get in good trouble
Necessary trouble.
Teargas, batons and their eyes of hate
Then they say “just be patient and wait”
Freedom can’t come gradually
It’s not right, it’s not fair, have something to say
And like John said, get in good trouble
And like John said, get in good trouble
Necessary trouble.
Wake up America
Speak up America
Stand up America
It’s not too late
And like John said, get in good trouble
And like John said, get in good trouble
Necessary trouble.

On Second Thought
There’s a man walking down the street
I can see that he looks different from me
My first thought tells me a story
About violence, about fear
About all the news I’ve watched over the years
But on second thought
I can choose another story
On second thought
I can change the world I see
I have the power to create the person I want to be
So I choose who I am
On my second thought
There’s a woman working at the checkout stand
By the way she speaks, she’s from a different land
My first thought tells me a story
About where she might belong
Then I catch myself and recognize my wrong
So on second thought
I will choose another story
On second thought
I will change the world I see
I have the power to create the person I want to be
So I choose who I am
On my second thought
Every one of us is on our own life’s journey
And our past is something that we can’t deny
But if we listen to each other
We can build a better future
When we work together
We can lift the sky
On second thought
We can choose another story
On second thought we change the world we see
We have the power to create the future we want to be
If we choose who we are
Yes, we choose who we are
When we choose who we are
On our second thought

Oh say can't you see?

Oh say can’t you see?
(white rose society)
Your dad signed up in ‘43
To fight the fascists overseas
Now you don’t hear the irony
Coming from your tv screen
Oh say can’t you see?
It’s the same throughout history
You turn your face away so silently
Hiding the good I see in you,
From me.
There’s so much information
You don’t want to choose
You just change the conversation
And let your echoes be your truth.
Oh say can’t you see?
It’s the same throughout history
You turn your face away so silently
Hiding the good I see in you,
From me.
You’re not the type of person
To be cruel or unkind
You taught us this was wrong
So how can we be blind?
Oh say can’t you see?
It’s the same throughout history
This isn’t how it has to be
It’s not too late for you
And me.
Oh say can’t you see?
It’s the same throughout history
Turning away from your morality
It’s not too late for you
And me
