A Sense of Doubt blog post #2190 - Ani DiFranco - Revolutionary Love - Musical Monday 2102.15
Since this album arrived on the day of its release because I pre-ordered it from Righteous Babe Records, I have been listening to almost nothing else. I have been playing it over and over and over.
This is the music we need.
This is the love we need.
I recommend this brilliant album and all the work of the great Ani DiFranco.

Lyrics:i will tend my anger
i will tend my grief
i will achieve safety
i will find relief
i’ll show myself mercy
i’ll show my self-respect
i’ll decide when i’m ready
to forgive but not forget
i will ask you questions
i will try to understand
and if you give me your story
i will hold it in my hands
yes, i will bring the love
the revolutionary love
i will bring the love
the revolutionary love
i will bring the love
the revolutionary love
the revolutionary love
and even if you hurt me
i will not shut down
no, you can’t make me hate you
and carry that hate around
i will see no stranger
only parts of myself, i don’t yet know
i’ll see right through evil
to a wound, too scared to show
i have the power to stay open
i have the power to be
the one that i’ve been waiting for
the one who sets me free
yes, i can bring the love
the revolutionary love
i can bring the love
the revolutionary love
yes, i will bring the love
the revolutionary love
the revolutionary love
i will tend my anger
i will tend my grief
i will achieve safety
i will find relief
i’ll show myself mercy
i’ll show myself respect
i’ll decide when i’m ready
to forgive but not forget
i will ask you questions
i will try to understand
and if you give me your story
i will bring the love
the revolutionary love
i will bring the love
the revolutionary love
i will bring the love
the revolutionary love
the revolutionary love

LYRICS:
do you ever just want to give up?
well, me too
are you shocked by what people get
get used to?
do you wake up in a cold sweat?
well, that’s sane
at least you got a little brain left
you got a little brain
cuz there’s foxes in the hen house
and bad news every day
and right there on pennsylvania avenue
the sheetless kkk
and there’s models wielding microphones
chasing maniacs around
and everything’s on fire
and there’s twisters touching down
and i know you got to fight your adrenaline
just to be a gentleman
and you know i got to fight my amygdala
just to keep hearin ya
but we can do this
if we try
if we do this
like it’s do or die
yes, we can do this
if we try
if we do this
like it’s do or die
so let’s pause
let us regroup
let us recover
let us recoup
that we are charmed
let us look down at our hands
and remember we’re armed
cuz yankee doodle dandy didn’t feel free once
so he used his pen to pick the locks
and yankee doodle dandy did some doosey kinda carpentry
when he fashioned that ballot box
and if you think your vote doesn’t matter
then you’re not paying attention
yes, everything they do, they do
to keep you from their invention
yes, if you think your vote doesn’t matter
then you’re not paying attention
everything they do, they do
to keep you from their invention
but we can do this
if we try
if we do this
like it’s do or die
yes, we can do this
if we try
if we do this
like it’s do or die
do you ever just want to give up?
well, me too
are you shocked by what people get
get used to?
do you wake up in a cold sweat?
well, that’s sane
least you got a little brain left
you got a little brain
and we can do this
if we try
if we do this
like it’s do or die
yes, we can do this
if we try
if we do this
like it’s do or die

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
