Like a Boss because he IS the Boss-
“Just don’t believe your eyes
It’s our blood and bones
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.

‘Draw us into the mystery of your love. Join our voices with all the heavenly hosts that we may sing your glory’
Entering this dark night with the hope and ache for light.
For love.
For joy.
Peace to all and y’all.
