The Weight Letra

Head high like a halo
Warm hands on the pavement
Eyes glowing in the heat lamps
Calling out a broken government

Walking home in a rainstorm
Mom and Dad don't believe you
Every word at commencement
New to the administration

You feel the weight
Come down to you
'Cause you know the truth
You got courage on your side

You feel the weight
Come down to you
And you know it to be true
You got courage on your side

Bodies blocking up a driveway
Car parked at Chicago
Unmarked in the walkway
Plainclothes on the radio

And anyway, you never wrote it out
In the library basement
They can force a resignation
But can't stop a formation

You feel the weight
Come down to you
'Cause you know the truth
You got courage on your side

You feel the weight
Come down to you
And you know it to be true
You got courage on your side
