Welcome to “MAAA – Make America Americana Again,” a musical project that celebrates the power of music to bring people together and inspire positive change. This project features 26 original songs, plus 15 bonus tracks (3:24:20), each with its own unique message, style, and Americana sub-genre. From Folk-Rock to Soul, from Outlaw Country to Techno, this project takes you on a musical journey across the Americana roots music landscape.

The premise of this project is simple yet powerful; music has the ability to unite us, to inspire us, and to challenge our assumptions. Through these songs, we aim to promote unity, social justice, and critical thinking, while also celebrating the diversity and complexity of the human experience.

Does that describe the ideologies of the U.S. Democratic Party? Yep. #VoteBlue

Each song in this project has been carefully crafted to tell a story, convey a message, or evoke a particular emotion. From the rousing anthem “Workers United, Hearts Ignited” to the heartfelt plea for kindness in “Compassion’s Call, Kindness Echoes,” these songs are designed to resonate with listeners from all walks of life.

You know. Inclusive. FORWARD. Like the Dems. #HarrisWalz

Throughout this article, you’ll find the lyrics, descriptions, and Americana subgenres for each song, as well as additional context and insights into the creative process behind this project. We hope you’ll add us to your playlist as you move forward, think critically, feel deeply, and act boldly.

An artfully crafted cautionary tale that challenges harmful ideologies and promotes unity, truth, and justice. We hope “The Patriot Act” inspires others to think critically and stand up for what’s right and what’s truly American.

Verse 1
They wear the flag like a badge of pride
But their actions speak of a different stride
They claim to be defenders of freedom’s call
But their words are hollow, echoing off the wall ¹

Chorus
Patriot Act, a disguise so bold
A veil of deceit, a story to be told
They’re pawns in a game, with hearts of gold
Manipulated and used, their stories untold

They’re fed with lies, and they swallow whole
Their hatred grows, their love turns cold
They’re lost in the noise, of a propaganda machine
Their patriotism, a mere illusion, a screen ¹

Chorus
Patriot Act, a disguise so bold
A veil of deceit, a story to be told
They’re pawns in a game, with hearts of gold
Manipulated and used, their stories untold

Their values twisted, their hearts in flames
They’re chasing shadows, in a world of pain
Their patriotism, a mere disguise, in vain ¹

A veil of deceit, a story to be told
They’re pawns in a game, with hearts of gold
Manipulated and used, their stories untold

And see the truth, behind the scheme
We must unite, and stand as one
Against the forces, that have just begun

A veil of deceit, a story to be told
We’re breaking free, from the chains that bind

We’ll rise above, their hate and fear
And forge a nation, where love and truth appear

A beacon of hope, in the dark of night

Bloodthirsty Dems

Verse 1:
In the shadows, they gather round
Democrats with a secret profound
Eating babies, drinking blood
It’s a conspiracy, that’s just not good

Chorus:
Bloodthirsty Dems, with a taste so fine
Harvesting adrenochrome, all the time
They’re the elite, with a secret so grand
But it’s just a myth, with no truth to stand

Verse 2:
From Hillary to Joe, they’re all in on the game
Sipping on blood, with a Satanic claim to fame
But what about the facts, and the truth we hold dear?
It’s just a conspiracy, with no evidence to fear

Bloodthirsty Dems, with a taste so fine
Harvesting adrenochrome, all the time
They’re the elite, with a secret so grand

But it’s just a rumor, with no truth to gain

Harvesting adrenochrome, all the time
They’re the elite, with a secret so grand
But it’s just a myth, with no truth to stand

Conspiracy theories, only lead to a darker state
We need to come together, with love and with light
Not spread baseless rumors, that ignite the night

But we can make a change, by seeking truth instead
Let’s fact-check and verify, before we share
And not perpetuate, baseless conspiracy theories that scare

The Cruz-Oswald Connection

Rafael Cruz and Oswald, a mysterious bind
They plotted and schemed, or so the story goes
But the facts are fuzzy, like a bad case of the woes

The Cruz-Oswald connection, a conspiracy so grand
A tale of intrigue, with no evidence to hand
We’re chasing shadows, and making up the past
The Cruz-Oswald connection, a myth that won’t last

Verse 2:
Rafael Cruz, a preacher man, with a heart full of fire
Oswald, a lone gunman, with a plan to conspire
They met in secret, or so the theorists claim

The Cruz-Oswald connection, a conspiracy so grand
A tale of intrigue, with no evidence to hand
We’re chasing shadows, and making up the past
The Cruz-Oswald connection, a myth that won’t last

But his dad’s alleged ties, to Oswald’s scheme

A tale of intrigue, with no evidence to hand
We’re chasing shadows, and making up the past

Rafael Cruz and Oswald, no connection to be found
Just a conspiracy theory, spinning round and round

But we must seek the truth, and not be misled
By conspiracy theories, that have no basis in fact

Yo, listen up, let me share a tale,
‘Bout a bag of coke, and a conspiracy trail,
Found in the White House, where the powerful reside,
But the facts are sketchy, and the truth is hard to hide.

But the evidence is lacking, and the claims are brand new,
Donald Trump’s on Twitter, spreading rumors like fire,
But the investigation’s findings, just don’t support his desire.

A tale of intrigue, with no evidence to hand,

White House Lines, a conspiracy that won’t last.

White House Lines, a mystery so grand,
A tale of intrigue, with no evidence to hand,
We’re chasing shadows, and making up the past,
White House Lines, a conspiracy that won’t last.

But we can make a change, by seeking truth instead,
Let’s not jump to conclusions, without evidence to share,
And remember, the truth is out there, we just need to show we care.

White House Lines, a mystery so grand,
A tale of intrigue, with no evidence to hand,
We’re chasing shadows, and making up the past,
White House Lines, a conspiracy that won’t last.

And not get caught up, in the conspiracy snare,.
We need to fact-check, and verify the claims,
And not let speculation, and rumors, get in the way of the truth and the facts, yo!

Trying to delegitimize, with conspiracy theories in the skies

California dreamin’, but not part of the crew
A natural-born citizen, but they’re questioning it anew
Born in Oakland, but is it really part of the land?
California dreamin’, a conspiracy so grand

Kamala Harris is eligible, and she’s truly the best
Born in California, a natural-born citizen too

But we can make a change, by seeking truth instead
Let’s fact-check and verify, before we share

Deep State of Mind

Verse 1:

They’re manipulating the news, and the weather too
The Deep State’s got a plan, and it’s all about “them” vs. “you”

Deep State of mind, where the tin foil hats shine
A secret government, with a conspiracy that’s mine
I’m a pawn in their game, but I’m feeling so fine
Deep State of mind, where the paranoia’s always on my mind

Chorus:
Deep State of mind, where the tin foil hats shine
A secret government, with a conspiracy that’s mine

But sometimes I wonder, if I’m just being taken for a ride

Obamagate

Verse 1:
In the land of tweets, where the truth is hard to find
A conspiracy’s born, with a hashtag on its mind
Obamagate’s trending, with a story to be told
Of spying and wiretaps, and a scandal to unfold

Obamagate, a tale of intrigue and might
A president accused, without evidence in sight
Spying on Trump, or so the story goes
Obamagate, a conspiracy that nobody knows

But the FBI’s got a warrant, and a legitimate trade
Carter Page is surveilled, but the rules are all followed
No evidence of wrongdoing, just a whole lot of hollowed

A president accused, without evidence in sight
Spying on Trump, or so the story goes
Obamagate, a conspiracy that nobody knows

Of no political bias, and a investigation to unfold
But the narrative’s already set, in the minds of the few
Who believe in Obamagate, without a shred of proof to do

Obamagate, a tale of intrigue and might
A president accused, without evidence in sight
Spying on Trump, or so the story goes
Obamagate, a conspiracy that nobody knows

But we can make a change, by seeking truth instead
Let’s fact-check and verify, before we take a stand
And not let conspiracy theories, take over our land

The Real President (Trump)

Verse 1:
I wake up every morning, in a world that’s not so real
Where Trump is still the president, and Biden’s just a feel
I check my newsfeed, and it’s full of lies and spin
But I believe what I want to, and that’s the truth within

Chorus:
The real president, it’s Trump, I know it’s true
He’s the one who’s really in charge, and Biden’s just a clue
I don’t need no evidence, just give me conspiracy
I’ll believe what I want, and that’s the truth I’ll see

Verse 2:
I see the polls, and they say Trump’s in the lead
But I know it’s fake news, just a liberal scheme to deceive

The real president, it’s Trump, I know it’s true

There are millions like me, who believe what we’re shown
We’re the truth-seekers, the patriots, the brave
We’ll believe what we want, no matter what the facts may say

Stolen Election Blues

They stole the election, without a single doubt
I heard it from a friend, who heard it from a guy
Who said the deep state’s behind it, don’t ask me why

Oh, the election was stolen, it’s a cryin’ shame
I don’t need no evidence, I just know it’s to blame
On the fake news media, and them Democrats too
They’re out to get me, and my vote, it’s true

Verse 2:
I saw a video online, that proved it was a scam
A guy in a basement, with a fancy algorithm
He showed how they rigged it, with a bunch of fake votes
I knew it was true, ’cause it was on the internet, no joke

Chorus:
Oh, the election was stolen, it’s a cryin’ shame
I don’t need no evidence, I just know it’s to blame
On the fake news media, and them Democrats too
They’re out to get me, and my vote, it’s true

Verse 3:
I’m not a conspiracy theorist, I’m just a concerned citizen
I’m just asking questions, like a true patriot and visionary
I’m not a sheep, I’m a woke individual
I can see the truth, and it’s not what they’re telling me, no way

So I’ll keep on shouting, from the rooftops high
The election was stolen, and I won’t say goodbye
To the truth, that is, no matter what they say
I’ll keep on fighting, in my own way

I won’t believe the lies, that’s just not me
I’ll keep on searching, for the truth and the light

A team of scientists, with a wicked master plan to start
They created global warming, with a sinister grin
To make the US manufacturing, non-competitive within

The Chemtrail Shuffle: The Mind Control Shuffle

Verses:
1. They’re spraying us with chemicals high up in the air
Making us dance like puppets, without a single care
We’re just pawns in their game, a mind-controlled throng
Dancing to the beat of their sinister song
2. They’re turning us into zombies, one trail at a time
We’re losing our free will, oh what a crime!
They’re controlling our thoughts, making us sing their tune
We’re just mindless drones, in their chemtrail boon

Controlling our minds, oh what they can do!
We’re just lab rats, in their twisted game
Dancing to the beat, of their chemtrail fame

Break free from the chains, and take back your mind
Don’t let them control you, leave the chemtrail grind!

Turn off the TV, and take back your brain
Don’t let them control you, it’s time to regain!

The Big Lie: January 6 Funk

Verses:
1. They say it was a tourist trip, a friendly little stroll
But we saw the violence, the insurrection’s goal
They claimed it was a false flag, a deep state setup game
But the truth is clear, and the evidence is not tamed
2. They tried to rewrite history, with a twisted little spin
But we remember the chaos, the harm, and the sin
They said it was a peaceful protest, a patriotic display
But the footage shows the truth, in a most unpleasant way
3. They’re drinking Kool-Aid, in a world of denial
Where facts are just opinions, and truth is just a trial
They’re living in a bubble, a echo chamber of deceit
But we’ll burst their fantasy, with a healthy dose of truth serum, neat

Exposing the lies, and the deceitful repeat
We’ll shine a light on the facts, like a disco ball of truth
And the Big Lie Funk, will be the last dance of youth

Chorus:
The Big Lie Funk, it’s a groovy little dance
Where truth is twisted, and facts are just a prance
We’ll call out the lies, with a funky little shout
And the Big Lie Funk, will be the last dance, without a doubt

Bridge:
Truth is truth, and lies are lies
We’ll not be fooled, by the Big Lie guise
We’ll stand for facts, and the truth will prevail
And the Big Lie Funk, will eventually fail

Paws & Claws, A Tasty Immigrant Bite

Verses:
1. In Springfield, Ohio, a rumor did spread
About Haitian immigrants, and their culinary dread
They’re eating cats and dogs, or so the tale is told
But we know it’s just hate, and a story gone cold
2. They say it’s a delicacy, a flavor so fine
But we know it’s just nonsense, a hate crime in disguise
Let’s not buy into the lies, or the fear they try to sell
We’ll stand against hate speech, and let love and truth compel
3. From puppers to kitties, to canine friends so dear
We’ll not let hate speech tear us apart, year after year
We’ll celebrate diversity, and our differences too
And reject the hate speech, that tries to divide us anew
4. So let’s raise our voices, and shout it loud and clear
We’ll not tolerate hate speech, and we’ll banish all fear
We’ll stand for love and kindness, and a world where all can thrive
And we’ll never let hate speech, our humanity survive

Chorus:
Paws and claws, a tasty immigrant bite
A hate speech rumor, that’s just not right
We’ll stand against hate, with all our might
And shine a light on love, and the truth that’s in sight

Let’s break the chains of hate, and let love be our guide
Embracing our differences, we’ll take the hate speech ride
We’ll rise above the noise, and let our hearts be heard
And we’ll never let hate speech, our humanity blur

Final Food For Thought

“Let America Be America Again” by Langston Hughes

Let America be America again.
Let it be the dream it used to be.
Let it be the pioneer on the plain
Seeking a home where he himself is free.

America never was America to me.

Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed
Let it be that great strong land of love
Where never kings connive nor tyrants scheme
That any man be crushed by one above.

It never was America to me.

O, let my land be a land where Liberty
Is crowned with no false patriotic wreath,
But opportunity is real, and life is free,
Equality is in the air we breathe.

There’s never been equality for me,
Nor freedom in this “homeland of the free.”

Say, who are you that mumbles in the dark?
And who are you that draws your veil across the stars?

I am the poor white, fooled and pushed apart,
I am the Negro bearing slavery’s scars.
I am the red man driven from the land,
I am the immigrant clutching the hope I seek
And finding only the same old stupid plan
Of dog eat dog, of mighty crush the weak.

I am the young man, full of strength and hope,
Tangled in that ancient endless chain
Of profit, power, of ownership, of fear.

I am the farmer, bondsman to the soil.
I am the worker sold to the machine.
I am the Negro, servant to you all.
I am the people, humble, hungry, mean
Hungry yet today despite the dream.

Beaten yet today—O, Pioneers!
I am the man who never got ahead,
The poorest worker bartered through the years.

Yet I’m the one who dreamt our basic dream
In the Old World while still a serf of kings,
Who dreamt a dream so strong, so brave, so true,
Of freedom, justice, and humanity.

And I’m the one who thought our basic thoughts
Who sang our songs, who told our tales,
Who prayed our prayers, who built our homes,
Who worked our fields, who fought our wars.

I’m the one who labored here for ages past
And kept the faith and never lost the hope
That one day I would be free.

O, let America be America again
The land where every man is free.

The land that’s mine—the poor man’s, Indian’s, Negro’s, ME

From those who live like leeches on the people’s lives,
From those who long to be the people’s guides,
From those whose freedom is a prison cell
Whose freedom is a death sentence to the free.

O, let America be America again.

— Langston Hughes, “Let America Be America Again” (1935)
