From the Mind

Lyrics

Spend all your days
Scrolling Twitter in rage,
Seeing things that don’t fit your worldview.

Every flag, every wall,
Every law makes you bawl,
Oh, the suffering—how can this be true?

You cry in despair,
At billionaires breathing air,
How dare they have yachts while you rent?

And the taxes are light,
On those working all night,
While your student loans still aren’t spent.

From the mind of a liberal,
Where logic has no place,
Where every slight is oppression,
And facts are just hate.

You’ll find comfort in feelings,
And a government that pays,
From the mind of a liberal,
Where reality fades.

If you see someone free,
With their own money,
It must mean they’re heartless and cruel.

If they work for success,
That’s just privilege, no less,
The system is rigged—shame on you!

You panic in fear,
When conservatives cheer,
At a border that dares to have walls.

And if crime’s on the rise,
Just cover your eyes,
It’s racism if you make calls.

From the mind of a liberal,
Where math is just too hard,
Where a border’s a hate crime,
And debt’s just a card.

You’ll find safety in outrage,
And virtue in the shade,
From the mind of a liberal,
Where feelings get paid.
