Subject: Lyr Add: Do Not Comply! (Anti-Trump Rally Song)
One of my bandmates from Roll & Go came up with this hard-hitting rally song. She's still working on the lyrics but it's gotten a good response at protest rallies in Maine:
Eli Dale March 2025 elidaleportland@gmail.com Feel free to use and distribute. Key: Cm (5/Gm) Do Not Comply
Chorus Am------G---Am----------------------G-----C-----Am Do not com-ply! You'll only make them strong-er; G Do not comply! You'll only feed the hunger C--G---Am----------------G--Am Of the beast that would de-vour; G----------------------C------------------G------C--G---Am Now is the hour, to stand before the beast and say, "No!"
V.1 Am---------------------G No, to the hatred of those who won’t conform -----C To some stupid gender norm; --------- G-----------------------------------Am We will raise a fearsome storm and say, "No!"
V.2 No, to the murder of those who need our care, Left with only thoughts and prayers; We will come from everywhere and say, "No!"
Chorus
V.3 No, to the erasure of those who are not white; Who’ve been swept into the night; We'll raise them to new heights and say, "No!"
V.4 No, to the destruction of this nation that provides A safe place to live our lives; There'll be no compromise when we say, "No!"
Chorus
V.5 No, to the Project where rich white men take it all; Leave the rest of us to crawl; We will tear down your walls and say, "No!"
