Meet Me on the Left

There are two different contemporary pop songs about meeting in the middle. Thus I felt a need to write this.

****

Look around
there is no middle ground
right is wrong
Where do you belong?
Won't you meet me on the left?

A compromise
will e'er more shut your eyes
the middle validates
racism and hate
Won't you meet me on the left?

Meet me on the left
Help to ward off freedom's theft
Meet me on the left
Without you we're bereft

World dies
oceans on the rise
carbon to curb
rouse the undisturbed
Won't you meet me on the left?

Folks get shot
a system fully bought
you cannot deal
with the fully evil
Won't you meet me on the left?

Meet me on the left
Help to ward off freedom's theft
Meet me on the left
Help us lifting this heft

You mean to accept
as human precept
eternal jail
just for being female
Won't you meet me on the left?

Look around
there is no middle ground
stand and fight
don't give in to the right
Won't you meet me on the left?

Meet me on the left
Help to ward off freedom's theft
Meet me on the left
Else you can… get effed
