Proposed Theme Songs for the movement

Posted on 11/09/2016 8:30:27 PM PST by Ravenstar

I propose that "the movement" of We the people have several theme songs if you will. My picks would be:

Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q65KZIqay4E

The Gatlin Brother's "Stand Up and Say So"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk_w4fZQXhI

Krista Branch's "I am America" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0heL2Czeraw

My apologies but I don't know how to embed a link.(I haven't posted in a very long time)

Any thoughts, comments

Hard to believe they are crying because the most crooked politician ever was not elected President.

This song. No other is acceptable.

For metalheads: Threshold's Ashes from their based 2012 album "March Of Progress." Less an anthem than an indictment of the Left though, as I read it...

Here we stand and face the world, renegades of consternation
Innocent in thought and word, ready for a new sensation
Block up the dam, close up the well to stop it flowing
Your memory is not preferred, for that is not the way we're going

Sliding away, from liberty to lethargy we fall
Subsiding again, collapsing from the burden of it all

Chorus:
But time after time we believe in better
Never let a chance pass us by
And we're sure we'll never fail to notice
Sign after sign, that a change is coming
Time is running out like a tide
But we think we're on a march of progress

From ashes we rise, to ashes we fall
We cannot disguise our hand in it all

Here we stand and take the blame, we thought that this could last forever
We turned our backs on God again, but everybody longs for heaven

Sliding away, from vision to deficiency we fall
Subsiding again, collapsing from the burden of it all

Here we stand and face the end, apathy alive and growing
On independence we depend but that is not the way we're going

Sliding away, from plenty to dependency we fall
Subsiding again, collapsing from the burden of it all

Oh the time will come up
When the winds will stop
And the breeze will cease to be breathin’
Like the stillness in the wind
’Fore the hurricane begins
The hour when the ship comes in

Oh the seas will split
And the ship will hit
And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking
Then the tide will sound
And the wind will pound
And the morning will be breaking

Oh the fishes will laugh
As they swim out of the path
And the seagulls they’ll be smiling
And the rocks on the sand
Will proudly stand
The hour that the ship comes in

And the words that are used
For to get the ship confused
Will not be understood as they’re spoken
For the chains of the sea
Will have busted in the night
And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean

A song will lift
As the mainsail shifts
And the boat drifts on to the shoreline
And the sun will respect
Every face on the deck
The hour that the ship comes in

Then the sands will roll
Out a carpet of gold
For your weary toes to be a-touchin’
And the ship’s wise men
Will remind you once again
That the whole wide world is watchin’

Oh the foes will rise
With the sleep still in their eyes
And they’ll jerk from their beds and think they’re dreamin’
But they’ll pinch themselves and squeal
And know that it’s for real
The hour when the ship comes in

Then they’ll raise their hands
Sayin’ we’ll meet all your demands
But we’ll shout from the bow your days are numbered
And like Pharoah’s tribe
They’ll be drownded in the tide
And like Goliath, they’ll be conquered

This one is surely the most appropriate:

Jason Aldean - Fly Over States

I am not a big fan of modern country music, but I really love this song. The whole thing brings me right back to any cross-country trips I've taken across the Midwest and Great Plains states.

If they ever caught a harvest moon in Kansas ... they'd understand why God made those flyover states.

Always liked the lyrics on this one, although I'm pretty sure the band is anti-Trump

Release The Clowns

We're losing our rights, we must graft for a holding
Apathetic men awake to a nightmare unfolding
Don't complain, cut and fight, for until battle comes
We're the slaves to the beat of an unchallenged drum
Stand ground.
Rally round.

Do You Hear The People Sing is obviously and clearly the song of the movement. So you win.
