Srinivas |
Dark was the night |
Cold was the ground |
When they shot Srinivas Kuchibhotla down |
It was in Austin’s Bar and Grill |
But it could’ve been most anyone |
A madman pulled the trigger |
Donald Trump loaded the gun |
My country 'tis of thee |
Srinivas was an engineer |
was his wife |
Like so many here before them |
They come here to build the life |
They were plannin' their first child |
But it was not to be |
But a stranger shot Srinivas down |
Screamin' «Get out of my country!» |
My country 'tis of thee |
I was born in America |
And it’s right here I intend to stay |
But my country’s hurtin' now |
There’s a few things I need to say |
If you fly a flag of hate |
Then you ain’t no kin to me |
And to Srinivas Kuchibhotla’s surviving family |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee |
My country 'tis of thee (Kuchibhotla!) |
My country 'tis of thee (Eric Garner!) |
My country 'tis of thee (Heather Heyer!) |
My country 'tis of thee (Jackson!) |
My country 'tis of thee (Sanders! Tennessee ! Ethel) |
My country 'tis of thee (Rice, Frankie Best) |
My country 'tis of thee (Michael Brown! David Simmons!) |
My country 'tis of thee () |
My country 'tis of thee () |
