Hi everyone,

I wrote a political song. The leader of the free world is a concern to all Western nations. That's why I made this song. I know some people don't like this kind of songs or messages, but I believe it matters to all of us. Therefore I made it. The title of the song is used many times by the main figure in the song. More of his words appear in the lyrics.

The melody is Blues / Rock-based.

I hope you like it for the lyrics, the melody or both,
Hans
Oh, and let me know what I did good or wrong. I like to learn!

The lyrics:
It is what it is
(c) HWBerkhout, 31082020

Our world is in trouble, and we can't sleep
Democracy is eroding, we weep
A doubtful government, we're ashamed everyday
A president praising dictators and thinks that's ok

Chorus
Mayhem and madness cause our world to decline
It is what it is and he feels fine
He's indifferent as cities burn
Call it nasty, but it's not his concern  

Black lives matter and MeToo
Pandemics and injustice, all ends under his shoe
He shows no empathy, calls it all a hoax
He tweets: fake news, and shatters hope

Economy is a loss, environment in despair
Millions without work, and he doesn't care
This failing leader proves he cannot reign
He denies all, he is so vain

Chorus
Mayhem and madness cause our world to decline
It is what it is and he feels fine
He's indifferent as cities burn
Call it nasty, but it's not his concern

Solo

Chorus2
But mayhem and madness make his world will decline
If it is what it is, then we feel fine
We'll be indifferent as his empire burns
Call it nasty but it's not our concern

Let's prevent this voting to be toyed
It is what it is, Democracy can't be destroyed
Though it sounds like a dream, dream it all the time!
It is what it is  and we'll be fine
Is it what it is? Are we fine?
Oh, wake up man...!
