(No Lyrics) 

Let's start with hope
I threw in the middle like a skipping stone
The ripples won, son of a gun
Some would not have thought so
But I stand here commander in chief.
And I take that seriously

But along the way
A rogue ripple turned tidal wave
In reaction to, what I tried to do
A rebirth of a nation's hatred
Red, white, and blue. Is black in there too?
   Seriously?

One man
Rewriting the book on bad behavior
    Maybe cheats the neighbors
    Feels he gets what they payed for
We can't
Pat him on the back and send him on through,
  No man's ignorance will ever be his virtue

Is this best we can be?
     Seriously?

Let's talk of fear
And why I don't bring it in here
It's a dangerous word, it spooks the heard
And we all bleed in the stampede
Fear makes a false friend indeed
And I take it seriously

[Pre-bridge]
But hear me now,
Before the truth gets drowned out
By a demagogue flexing
A demagogue flexing
He's history repeating

Angry?
 I angry?
You ask if I'm angry.
And I'm at a loss for words

After all we've done,
Every battle hard one,
Every hair gone gray
In this name of this place
In a history plagued
With in-credible mistakes
Still I pledge my allegiance to these
U-nited Divided States
Seriously?

Let's end with why
It's a question I
Want to ask of us, as a populace
Why not take our time
Or the weight of the story...

N..                                         
...Seriously
