Brush it off

Them Modern Day Downhome Backhand Racist Blues   
You said I was wrong for marching in the streets  
You said I’m wrong for taking a knee 
Seems to me you just don’t care what I have to say 
You tell me to go out and vote if I wanna change things 
You and both know damn well Gerry Mand is the king
I got them modern day downhome backhand racist blues   

There’s mighty fine people on both sides 
Go back to where you came from is Black & White Cut & Dried 
Ain’t no two ways you can argue that  
Let me tell you something that fool can see 
A hood and torch never meant good things coming to me
I got them modern day downhome backhand racist blues   

You call me a racist and begin to cry  
Jedi Mind Trick demand that I apologize
 Put your finger in my face and begin to shout
 All cause I had the nerve to call you out  

Plausible deniability  
Telling me I ain’t heard what I heard  and I ain’t seen what I see
 I got them modern day downhome backhand racist blues   

You call me a racist and with tears in your eyes  
Jedi Mind Trick saying’ I should apologize
 Put your finger in my face and begin to shout
All cause I had the nerve to call you out   

Every day another Fox News clown  
On the national news tryin’ to break it down
 The gaslight always brightly lights the way 
PlausiBULLSHIT deniability 
Telling me I ain’t heard what I heard  and I ain’t seen what I see
 I got them modern day downhome backhand racist blues
