[Verse 1]
\nRight before our eyes
\nThere’s no surprise
\nWe don’t realize
\n… stolen prize<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nAre you aware
\n(In all fairness)
\nThere’s a lack of awareness
\n(There)<\/p>\n

Did you hear
\n(Blinders and harness)
\nThere’s a lack of awareness
\n(Here)<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nWe’ve got to raise
\n(Awareness)
\nBring up the praise
\n(Raise)
\nAwareness<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nRight before our eyes
\nFail to recognize
\nBeyond jeopardize
\n… stolen prize<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nAre you aware
\n(In all fairness)
\nThere’s a lack of awareness
\n(There)<\/p>\n

Did you hear
\n(Blinders and harness)
\nThere’s a lack of awareness
\n(Here)<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nWe’ve got to raise
\n(Awareness)
\nBring up the praise
\n(Raise)
\nAwareness<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\nWe’ve got to raise
\n(Awareness)
\nBring up the praise
\n(Raise)
\nAwareness<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE SONG<\/p>\n

The song “Awareness”<\/strong> is a pointed reflection on the willful ignorance, denial, and complacency<\/strong> that enabled and perpetuated the Trump presidency. It critiques both Trump\u2019s actions and the public\u2019s failure to fully confront or understand their consequences.<\/p>\n

\u00a0[Verse 1 & 2: “Right before our eyes \/ There’s no surprise \/ We don’t realize \/ … stolen prize”]<\/strong><\/h3>\n

These lines express a sense of collective blindness<\/strong> or denial:<\/p>\n
