lyrics

Spent half a day in Macon trying to catch my breath.
Doing what I can to shield myself while I defend the rest.
I don’t need no memories to remind me of the past.
God, guns, and family are the only things that last.
Paint me a picture, paint it black and white
Douse the fire, quiet the drum.
Paint me a picture without color we unite.
Cut the wire, reverse what we’ve become.
From Atlanta to Savannah, the knife cut deep and wide.
Marching day and night, still 7 days behind.
Untouched stands Savannah to show what might have been.
Sacrifice the rest to pay for the founders sin.
Paint me a picture, paint it black and white
Douse the fire, quiet the drum.
Paint me a picture without color we unite.
Cut the wire, reverse what we've become.
It’s been almost 40 years since the powder flashed in my eyes.
A haunting hymn still fills the night and I hear them cry.
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, Freedom
Paint me a picture, paint it black and white
Douse the fire, quiet the drum.
Paint me a picture without color we unite.
Cut the wire, reverse what we've become.
