27 Club

about

I wrote this song about the Flint water crisis. It's something I've read a lot about and it makes my blood boil every time I think about Rick Snyder being a free man, the way he shirked blame onto everyone else he could. They say history repeats...

lyrics

we have our own 27 club in Michigan
or was it 27,000
babies with scabs all on their skin?
this is more than just incompetence
this is evil
this was done with intention

who's disposable?
who's dismissible?
how can you fucking sleep at night?
the blood is on your hands

they say the "land of the free"
it seems damned to me
they say history repeats

G-U-I DOUBLE L O-TINE!

Old Ricky is a terrorist
and no, that's not extreme
how did you manage to get out of this with your nose so clean?
and people have the nerve to say
racism doesn't persevere
it's been 7 years and Flint still lives in fear

so who's disposable?
who's dismissible?
how do you fucking sleep at night?
the blood is on your hands

they say the "land of the free"
it seems damned to me
they say history repeats

G-U-I DOUBLE L O-TINE!
