Song For Congress Testo

I'm a New Yorker with long American roots
I see a land that's tilting
And I don't know what to do
Something is different, this danger feels new
Who do we look to?

In the capital building, the chosen few
I wrote a song for you
I wrote a song for you
As you walk through the Statuary Hall
D'you hear the marble breathing?
All the statues are tryna talk
What do you think that they're saying?

They muse of history
Writes everything down
She writes just what she sees
In Washington town

As you walk through the Statuary Hall
D'you catch the marble moving?
All the statues are tryna walk
Where do you think that they're going?

We're on a bigger team
Than left or right
We have a flickering history
As a guiding light
Don't wanna see the American dream Die in the night

Round the world in bars and parks
People commiserate
Complex feelings like this flag of our but
Don't wanna see it fade
They still want their
American friend

As you walk through the Statuary Hall
D'you see the marble moving?
All these statues are starting to walk
Where do you think that they're going?

To find the man
Who would be king
Doesn't seem to care
About anything

Now's the time to do something
(Do we dare look away?
Shut our eyes as we slide into the dark?)
Now's the time to do something
(When we're all looking back
We will cry when we see what we have done)
Now's the time to say something
(Families split up
The world heating up)
Now's the time to say something
(We are letting hate
Lead us away)
