I Know (feat. Tenille Townes & Bryce Vine)

Imagine a land that smirks n laughs
And has a sick fascination
With hate-filled psychopaths
That celebrate assassination

We need to get back on track
Stick with facts, not accusations
To find n walk that narrow path
That leads to higher aspirations

Seven times, awful signs
Heaven saw the fraud n crimes
Thought Truth was fifty shades of gray
First Lincoln, King, then JFK

Seven times, warning signs
Grab a copy of the morning times
They ain't just callin' people names
They're lighting a match n fanning the flames

Running 'round the house
Playin' hide and seek
Didn't know I was about
To take a giant leap

Hadn't given it much thought
Way back in sixty three
The president had been shot
The nation hit it's knees

Seven times, awful signs
Heaven saw the fraud n crimes
We were all, hopin' he's OK
Was it Oswald, or the CIA?

Seven times, warning signs
Grab a copy of the morning times
They ain't just callin' people names
They're lighting a match n fanning the flames

Had a feeling of fear n dread
Somethin' stirred in my chest
Got a call from my son-in-law
Said Charlie Kirk was dead

The shooter was disturbed
I couldn't believe my ears
What I saw and heard
confirmed my worst fears

Seven times, or seventy times
Once or twice would not suffice
Should've seen, the warning signs
Whatever the cost, I'll pay the price

Seven times, awful signs
Heaven saw the fraud n crimes
Thought Truth was fifty shades of gray
But God's forgiveness paved the way

Seven times, the Morning Times
Should've seen the warning signs
Seek His face, watch and pray
Charlie would've wanted it that way

We need to get back on track
Stick with facts, not accusations
To find n walk that narrow path
That leads to higher aspirations

We need to stop callin' people names
Stop lighting a match n fanning the flames
Need to take this time to watch and pray
Charlie would've wanted it that way 

Better with You
