elegy for the living - discostew lyrics
i come from the land of bbq and b*tter
bringing it up makes some people shudder
been beat bruised and battered by the same folks for centuries
now it’s the hot thing to leave them all in poverty?
they defend bootstrapping while they ain’t got shoes
cuz the garbage they’ve been fed from watching fox news
ruling classes medicate giving us all opiates
so we’ll break our backs and work and never truly integrate
the future is different you see
the future is you and me
the future is all people free
the future is what we wanna be
the past is dark and gloomy no one can deny
but that is why we gotta fight and not just sit and hide
only way forward is to sometimes look back
realize where we went wrong take a different track
in the land of bluegrass things are broken
to politicians they are just a token
bringing back coal to line their own pockets
never give a thought to the people that stock it
the left too, has left us behind
thinking that all we wanna do is hit rewind
people in the mountains have been pushed away for years
cuz people on the coast have had bigger fears
like keeping their jobs keeping their wealth
only ever thinking about enriching themselves
this has been an issue since hamilton and whiskey
giving mountain people freedom they see that as risky
in short all i want’s a better south
people think we’re snakes like a f*cking cottonmouth
recognize our past look forward to the future
to holding things together permanent no suture
