[Verse]

THE LOUDER YOU SHOUT

(Verse 1)

They say it’s the most important year,

Same old promise, same old cheer.

Different faces, same damn spin,

They don’t care who loses, long as they win.

The louder you shout, the more you’re right,

Facts don’t matter when you own the mic.

Raise your voice, fake that fight,

Truth gets buried in the TV light.

(Chorus)

Oh, they sell us dreams in red, white, and blue,

Wrap up lies like they’re something new.

Say “hope,” say “change,” say “we care for you,”

But it’s just the same game we’ve been running through.

The louder you shout, the more you’re right,

Spin it, grin it, all day and night.

Yeah, the louder you shout, the more you’re right—

We just clap along to the soundbite.

(Verse 2)

They promise reform, they promise to heal,

Then sign the deal behind the wheel.

They’ll fix the system — someday soon,

Just after they lunch with the tycoon.

They blame each other, trade the sin,

Point the finger, cash it in.

Every saint’s got dirt to hide,

Every slogan’s just a bribe in disguise.

(Chorus)

Oh, they sell us dreams in red, white, and blue,

Wrap up lies like they’re something new.

Say “hope,” say “change,” say “we care for you,”

But it’s just the same game we’ve been running through.

The louder you shout, the more you’re right,

Spin it, grin it, all day and night.

Yeah, the louder you shout, the more you’re right—

We just clap along to the soundbite.

(Bridge – spoken like a rally)

Government of the people? — sure, on paper.

Freedom for all? — depends on the waiver.

They quote Lincoln, FDR, Kennedy, too,

But they all played the game — just like they do.

Reagan’s “freedom,” Clinton’s “pain,”

Obama’s “hope,” Trump’s “drain the swamp” train.

Now Biden’s “better” — well, that’s nice,

But we’ve seen this show once or twice.

(Verse 3)

Invent an enemy, sell the fear,

Divide the crowd, then shed a tear.

“Unity” means “you agree with me,”

That’s democracy — apparently.

They kiss the babies, bless the flag,

Shake the hands, then cut the bag.

They promise gold, deliver tin,

And smile wide when the cameras spin.

(Final Chorus)

Oh, they sell us dreams in red, white, and blue,

Wrap up lies like they’re something new.

Say “hope,” say “change,” say “we care for you,”

But it’s just the same game we’ve been running through.

The louder you shout, the more you’re right,

Facts don’t matter when you own the mic.

Yeah, the louder you shout, the more you’re right—

And the rest of us fade into the night.They only care to win,

Year after year, same story, same spin.

The louder they shout, the more they’re right...

And we just keep tuning in.
