Red or Blue,
no matter who.
Everyone, everywhere
the independents, too!
Have you heard the whispers,
do you hear the screams?
People are hating, and crying and breaking -

It’s time to stop fighting,

Time to wake up,
and fight another day.
You can not just sit it out,
you’re an American, too.

And life is beautiful,
even filled with strife.
