Good Trouble

Good Trouble (Dedicated To The Revolutionary Spirit Of Pete Seeger)

 FAWM #4

Listening to the folk songs of this stolen land                       

As politicians seek to secure total command                         

What a surprise the devil in disguise well I’ll be damned     

I don’t miss Bob Dylan at all but where’s The Band?                       

 

We will survive climbing up from the rubble

So happy to be alive it’s good trouble

I saw two rainbows God’s promise in double

Don’t you know life itself is good trouble

 

Two debaters both haters searching for a clue

Crying and lying denying Jesus’s words were true

Make America great again pre fourteen ninety-two

Sacrificial love the Holy Dove men of virtue

 

We will survive climbing up from the rubble

So happy to be alive it’s good trouble

I saw two rainbows God’s promise in double

Don’t you know life itself is good trouble

 

Teach me some chords I’ll write some words trying to rhyme

A time for war a time for peace living the greatest crime

Hey broken hearted poets now is the time to make sense

Man may be fragile but I smile in confidence

 

We will survive climbing up from the rubble

So happy to be alive it’s good trouble

I saw two rainbows God’s promise in double

Don’t you know life itself is good trouble

 

No trespassing our ego is surpassing the heights of the moon

We don’t know exactly when but then again we know it’s soon

Push the red button and welcome in a nuclear holocaust

We can no longer wait we must contemplate counting the cost

 

By the riverside singing slightly out of tune

Even tall trees don’t offer any shade at high noon

Turn the other cheek blessed are the meek yeah love is free

You ain’t on the left if you’re against anarchy

 

We will survive climbing up from the rubble

So happy to be alive it’s good trouble

I saw two rainbows God’s promise in double

Don’t you know life itself is good trouble
