lyrics

TO BE FINE

You shattered the illusion of inclusion overnight
Well alright
You got the complexion for protection
Yeah I’m touchy - pass the Dutchy
Stars and bars adorn your cars
Hey Bubba, do you miss the past
There’s a noose loose in your caboose - how did it get there
You say I don’t know

Chorus: 
It’s going to take a long time
For us to be fine
It’s going to take a mighty leap
And the mountain is steep

What did you think was so great
The strange fruit or the hate
Is it the Trail of Tears
That’s got you crying in your beer

What are you so proud of boys
Is it the guns or the toys
Stop making sense
Yeah hang Mister Pence

(Chorus)

You say that’s not who I am
You don’t understand, well prove it
(And it don’t look good)
You say “you don’t see race when you look at my face”.
But that’s a lie, a lie, a big white lie
Oh it’s gonna take a long time

(Chorus x2)
