Nina cried revolution

I thought that it might be nice to start the week with Nina Simone. I mean what week isn’t improved by that kind of start?

This track just seems so apt for the present moment…

And now we got a revolution
‘Cause I see the face of things to come
Yeah, your Constitution
Well, my friend, it’s gonna have to bend
I’m here to tell you about destruction
Of all the evil that will have to end.Some folks are gonna get the notion
I know they’ll say I’m preachin’ hate
But if I have to swim the ocean
Well I would just to communicate
It’s not as simple as talkin’ jive
The daily struggle just to stay aliveSingin’ about a revolution
Because we’re talkin’ about a change
It’s more than just evolution
Well you know you got to clean your brain
The only way that we can stand in fact
Is when you get your foot off our back
