lyrics

When I see the Sores of War
Flying high up in the sky
On the license plate of your car
And tattooed on your thigh
I wonder sometimes
Yeah I wonder why

When I see that Stainless Banner
Nailed so neatly to your wall
I try to feel no anger
But it's hard to feel so small
And I say to myself
What's wrong with us all?

When I see a rebel flag
Painted proudly on your face
I wish we all had a tail to wag
Maybe then we'd be one race
And I pray sometimes
For that old Amazing Grace

Some say it's a sign of southern pride
A symbol of our history
Well, maybe so, if you were on that side
Fighting for that mystery
Some say it's a flag of bravery
But that's not what it's about
There was a thing called slavery
And that thing was thrown out

Now it's time to do the same
With the flag you love so dearly
You probably don't know my name
So I'll just sign this song

Sincerely

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
