Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(And that was "Soft Serve", Capitol's new collaboration with Sapphire, the new upcoming electronic artist. Check him out. This next song is called "Just a Side Note". It's off the same album. Hope it's quick!)
[Verse 2]
Quick like time flies when you're having fun
So Obama's two terms felt like only one
Year, please come back, this ain't a fucking side note
This is a political rant, shit, here I go
Off with this shit! Off with his head!
God, is that even a head or an orange that's dead
And/or decomposing and poisoned with lead?
I don't care, how do I start? Start with this here:
Tell me why the fuck Huckabee went to a fucking Mexican restaurant
Though she defended Trump Dump's plan
And then you complain that she was kicked out
But you have to understand what the backstory's about
Separating families and treating them like animals
Putting them in cages, but you don't care, a werewolf
Is more genuine-hearted than you, it's true
"Mr. President, they're not the animals: you're a baboon."
'Cause if I provided facts, you'd fight me like a two-year-old would
"Excuse me, you're rude, put down the mic" You would
But I wouldn't, I'd keep asking you legitimate questions
About gun control, LGBTQ, Obamacare, rest, then
Abortions, school shootings, companies are polluting
Sexism, racism, homophobia, two things
About global warming and xenophobia
I've got scientific evidence, just let me get a hold of ya!
Oh, I almost forgot! Tell me what the fuck is up with
This thing that you have with the Russian government
And every leader with big power and money
It's almost to the point where it's not even funny
Scratch that--we passed that a long time ago
Talking way back when to when we first had to know
That you were the president and we had to obey
Come to think of it, I remember that day...
"You're getting deported!" was said, and then a cry
From the justice in the room, the sky started to slump
Put your opinions aside, he makes minorities wanna die
It's better than living in America under Trump!
And this is just a side note (I pledge allegiance)
To destroying this administration (To the flag)
This flag doesn't include minorities anymore (Of the United States)
As long as Trump's in charge of this nation (Of America)
Of America
Of America
Of America
Of America
And those are just my thoughts, right up in my brain
Can't control 'em
Just a little side note, you know?
Heh, you thought it was over, didn't you?
See, everything wrong about him
Can't be summarized in three minutes like...
[Verse 3]
9/11 was because of Al Qaeda (Right?)
But not because of all Muslims, realize who you're blaming (Right)
Blame Al Qaeda, not all Muslims, that's like blaming all (What?)
Christians for the KKK, it makes no sense at all (Woo!)
So can we stop all the movies that are supposed to move me
Every school year, on the same damn day?
Speaking of schools, do something about the school shootings
Just fix it, don't just think and pray
I know where you can start: you know those semi-automatic machine guns?
Maybe you could start by taking those away
'Cause guns kill people, taking them away would mean
There's no guns people use to kill the people with and there's freedom today
And I wish it was a surprise
Or at least a minor mistake in the eyes
Of the ring that only happened once or twice
But time after time, police make innocent blacks die!
Little bitch Zimmerman shoots Trayvon, and now you see
A little bag of Skittles is a gun now, apparently
But don't you know this is still land of the free?
Home of the brave, this racist land's called America, see?
Oh say, can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed... (Take a stand for your country!)
[Verse 4]
I hate this motherfucker
Look, Trump, you're the president of the United States
Don't wear the white hood, bitch
(Give me your tired, your poor)
You don't know what it's like to be either
(Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free)
Well, you can't breathe free when you're tied to a cross
(I lift my lamp beside the golden door)
Trump'll smash that lamp, send you back to "your land"
Where you've never been, but it doesn't matter
And even if you're legal, you might get shot up in a mosque
I said that we were traveling to [insert country here]
And they shot back with "Is it safe?", out of this country of fear
But it's come to the point where anywhere's safer than here
So you tell me, is it safe? I-I-I-I can't even hear
They say that ignorance is bliss, but tell me: is that really true here?
It just seems like it's so one-sided, we need someone on the other side of the fear
And it's miles from here or it's quite freaking near
To your home, so you steer out the way with a cognitive dissonance
Get a medic or they'll detonate in fear
Everything's about the fear, want 'em to get away from here
No, I don't know why, no, I'm tryna find the "no"
Tryna find the limit where anyone won't do anything for money no more
Money, funny thing is I just don't show, I just don't know
And I wish it wasn't a crime to ask questions b-b-buried in the snow (Buried in the snow)
[Verse 5]
Shit
We really screwed it up, screwed this entire planet up
With global warming that's gonna kill us all
Scientists say we have until 2050
At the rate that we're going with this all
I look directly at the clock and it says that
The time is running out
Here's what we have to do: stop polluting, give women equal pay
Maybe we have to do a few things on Election Day
Decisions, decisions, but this decision is giving
A chance of redemption, vote in the 2020 Election
A section--it's small but it matters--a section of all the votes is
Your own, get these fucking battlegrounds out of here, Moses
So are you yet sick of living in "This is the broken
America that this youth will forever know"? Polls soon closing
So vote, shit! What, are you scared to make a difference?
Little prick, get rid of your wishlist from Christmas
And fix this and get this orange out of here, this citrus
[Verse 6]
And this is just a side note (I pledge allegiance)
To destroying this administration (To the flag)
This flag doesn't include minorities anymore (Of the United States)
As long as Trump's in charge of this nation (Of America)
Of America
Of America
What does America stand for?
What does America stand for?!
And there's so much that I could say
But I don't wanna say it right now
I'm already in such a depressive state
That 49 more of them will drag me down
And I know sometimes it's hard to get through the day
But you're on a roll right now
So one more time, for goodness' sake
Somebody vote out this clown
[Verse 7]
(What I wanna know is who voted to have Capitol on this--who voted to have him here? He's liberal trash! Alright, hold on one second. Well, Cap, thanks for playing that on our conservative radio show.)
Hey, no fucking problem, man!
Just my thoughts
