about

Written between March and May of 2021, this song is a response to wannabe social influencers co-opting socio-political movements for internet brownie points.

lyrics

Oh you're so educated there's
nothing left to learn
Your words pontificated
but they're never heard

Never met a cause celebré
that you can't embrace
You can scream out bloody murder
'til you're blue in the face

C'mon and join a cause
To show that you belong
C'mon and join a cause
Just 'cause

Equal rights might equal likes on your
social media feed
But you'd watch your city burn
from your tv screen

Your passion lacks conviction
in reality
Can't you spare a dime to feed just
one american dream

C'mon and join a cause
To show that you belong
C'mon and join a cause
Just 'cause
