John Rich just released his new song “Progress,” and it is absolutely going to be a mega American anthem, defining this moment in our history.
This from dailycaller.com.
While most people watch television or movies to tap into the social and political vibes of the time, music has always had a far better pulse on what real Americans are feeling at any given time. Never has this been more true than it is for country music and politics right now.
Rich’s new song, Progress, is already hit No. 2 on iTunes’ country chart, according to a post shared on Rich’s Twitter account.
It’s a beautiful three-minute ballad that not-so-subtly says “f**k you and f**k off” to the democrat-communist machine in office.
Rich opens the track:
There’s a hole in this country where its heart used to be.
He goes on to sing, a seemingly blatant middle finger to the Joe-Joe regime’s poster-child bill:
They say building back better will make America great. If that’s the wave of the future, all I’ve got to say…
Stick your progress where the sun don’t shine.
Keep your big mess away from me and mine. I
If you leave us alone, well, we’d all be just fine.
Rich’s lyrics feel like a poignant love story for the millions of Americans struggling to identify with the progressive movement sweeping Washington D.C. and leaching into blue enclaves across the country.
The rest of the song covers everything from the importance of Jesus, faith, the travesty of the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, lockdowns, homelessness and the border crisis.
The lyrical beauty of the song is sure to echo from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Rockies as we move toward the November midterms and I can’t wait to belt it from my pickup truck here in the Carolinas.
Could this song possibly be the beginnings of our October Surprise?
The video captures features from every demographic of human living in the U.S. today and is certain to draw many a tear from even the toughest of us.
Shortly before Rich released the song, he wrote on his Twitter account:
America is finding unity in the pain.
The more pain they bring, the more bonded we become.
It’s working in reverse of what they hoped for.
And may God and our hard work and determination save America from the Obiden communist transformation.
