Eyes on the Fireworks

Do you see what's free
Even if you don't agree
Go on, gotta place your bets
while we hide from the gun threats
I bet you feel brave from behind the internet
It can't be taught to last
If we settle our differences fast
Now our kids learn to write and read
and everything between
and get down, cover and freeze
Put me between the sand and sky
Ocean ahead and past behind
Warm summer winds all day and night
It won't matter who is right
Do you see what's free
A holiday facade of freedom
Give away human rights to feed them
Headline news, we bleed on
Give up paychecks to seed them
Teens get killed, an audience fulfilled
You gotta keep the people engaged
Even if it keeps them enraged
Profits and numbers got something to say
Put me between the sand and sky
Ocean ahead and past behind
Warm summer winds all day and night
It won't matter who is right
Headline news
An unarmed man murdered!
Wait, adjust for views
Man not following orders!
Headline news
The world is overheating
Just hit snooze
It's starting to feel like spring!
Put me between the sand and sky
Ocean ahead and past behind
Warm summer winds all day and night
It won't matter who is right"
