[Verse 1]
I can't believe that we still gonna do that same sh-
Sometimes it gets so bad I can't even handle it
If I see another black boy die at the hands of this
I don't know
Don't wanna lose control
[Pre-Chorus]
But it can't last forever
Seasons change as does the weather
Things are bound to get better
As the days go by
[Chorus]
Make America great again
I think they mean it was great for them
'Cause it wasn't so great for everyone back then
So weigh in
[Verse 2]
I can have all the money and the fame and they still don't care
'Cause if I get pulled over, I still gotta live in fear
Martin said injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere
I hope we can give them
[Pre-Chorus]
But nothing lasts forever
Seasons change as does the weather
Things are bound to get better
As the days go by
[Chorus]
Make America great again
I think they mean it was great for them
'Cause it wasn't so great for everyone back then
So weigh in

Was America great for Emmett Till? For Terence Crutcher? How 'bout the four little girls or the Central Park Five, or the Emanuel Nine? Was America great for Rodney King? For Philando Castile? For Sandra Bland or Pamela Turner? I don't even have the breath to say America is great. Eric Garner. Make America great again? Again when?
