This isn't where I thought we would be Fear is an easy sell, like reality TV Evangelicals chose the candidate of bigotry, the hypocrisy Privilege is ignition It burns in the alt-right These are people who think women should be in kitchens These are people still against And they speak their minds So I'll speak mine When you politicize reproductive rights You threaten the lives of people that I love When your immigration line is that it's deportation time You threaten to destroy families that I love Dr. King dreamed about equality this Morning I woke up and felt like that dream died The successor to my county's first black president Is a KKK supported, climate change denying, misogynist who lies 72 percent of the time It still makes me cry What do you say to the kids that wake up today It's hard to teach them to love even in dissent When ridicule is embraced by the president So now we're standing in the present naval gazing at the past Depending on where you're standing it might not look that bad If that's the case you've been had We can never go back This isn't where I thought we would be
