Where mercy should have stood
And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets

And these whistles and phones
Against Miller and Noem’s dirty lies.
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
