Charlottesville
Robert e Lee was a treasonous ole soul
To defeat the republic his goal
Slavery was abolished the people were free
But only two third a southern decree
The republic with stood the brutal onslaught
Capturing the rebels stopping the plot
50yrs after the civil war
They put up a monument to lee's slavery once more
In two thousand and seventeen
They thought it was time the south came clean
Remove ole Lee off his high horse
But the white supremest and KKK had no remorse
They march on Charlottesville with torches a blaze
Singing Nazi slogans eyes filled with craze
Their hate of black and Jews they proclaimed
Three dead and trump said no one to blame
All people just want to live free
But hate filled hearts and ignorant animosity
Another day in racist America rose in Charlottesville
White Sheets and a rope looking for brother to kill
