about

This is the title track of the album. Although added the word "Don't" to the album title to try and have a more positive message. However, this song is about how Trump uses dog whistles and racial code words to rile up his base and incite division.
The lyrics for this song were wrote shortly after the Charlottesville riots. This was the peak of open racism in this country and one of the low points in our modern history.

lyrics

You speak in code words of racial slurs
You disseminate messages of hate
Is the greatness? Have we achieved it?
Torch carrying white supremacists in the streets of Charlottesville

You blew a whistle for racial Hate
They heard the call, they showed up in force
Separate water fountains, back of the bus
Is that the “greatness” that we lost (is that what you want)
But at what cost?
Is that what you want?

You want a new life but you can’t come in
Your creds are alright, it’s the color of your skin
It’s not your fault there are those who pretend
They want to Make America Great Again
