‘All My Heroes Are Dead’ — #lyrics to a #rap -#rock protest song

I’m intoxicated and feel like venting. Not advocating anything. I will note that the angry rap protest songs of the late 1980s and early 1990s are really good!

All My Heroes Are Dead
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead

2024 is not just a number
history is rushing towards us
crashing down on our heads
the Man wants black and brown
to attack each other
while he rakes in the dough
that’s why

all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead

we need truth not lies
the power of the polls is fading
as we speak
in ways that would make Dr. King scream
we have to take the streets
in November
if the tyrant returns from under his sheet

all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead

(bridge)
listen to the radio
waiting for your sign
to make history come alive
when the Man learns the power
of angry men who want
the truth to rule the land

all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead
all my heroes are dead
