I can't believe what we've become
Our nation is still reeling
Gunned down in cold blood at thirty one
And some are still unfeeling

What did he do? What was his crime?
That they had to take him away?
Snatched away in his prime
Because they couldn't win the debate

While left-wing nuts feast and cheer
The rest of us can't believe our ears
It seems to me, something's snapped
The people weep, the devil laughs

This wasn't the way it had to be
But God's gonna use this tragedy
To help those leadin' us see the light
And expose the media's evil lies

Charlie's army won't be slowed or stopped
In fact, it's gonna grow and pick up steam
Don't be deceived, God won't be mocked
As we expose their wicked schemes

Charlie's army is gonna sweep the land
It'll grow, it can't be shadow-banned
Those who sat in silence will finally take a stand
N those who do violence will feel the jailer's hand

I can't believe what we've heard and seen
Our nation's heart was beginning to heal
But now it seems all they want is blood
Now they're gonna see the Art of the Deal

What did he do? What was his crime?
That they had to take him away?
Snatched away in his prime
Because they couldn't win the debate

Charlie's army won't be slowed or stopped
In fact, it's gonna grow and pick up steam
Don't be deceived, God won't be mocked
As He exposes their wicked schemes

Charlie's army is gonna sweep the land
It'll grow, it can't be shadow-banned
Those who sat in silence will finally take a stand
N those who do violence will feel the jailer's hand

He was slayin' deep state giants, tryna tear this nation apart
We need to be brave, not be afraid of the dark
And carry Charlie's legacy deep in our hearts

Need to be brave and not be afraid of the dark
Slay the deep state giants tryna break us apart
Charlie's army won't be slowed or stopped
We need to be brave, not afraid of the dark

Charlie's army is gonna sweep the land
So get off the sidelines, and join the band
