Where Were You Senator? Where Were You?

The children grew heavier, the sickness spread wide,
Diabetes at the table, no safe place to hide.
Autism rising, depression in their eyes,
You sat in those chambers, deaf to their cries.

You sat for years, did nothing,
Now you call him radical for trying to heal.
You sat for years, did nothing,
While the pain of the people was real.
Where were you, Senator Wyden? Where were you?
Where were you, Senator Sanders? Where were you?

The classrooms are hurting, the playgrounds are still,
While childhood disease climbs higher uphill.
Families are breaking under burdens they knew,
But what did you offer? A speech or two.

You sat for years, did nothing,
Now you call him reckless for trying to fight.
You sat for years, did nothing,
But RFK Jr. is shining a light.
Where were you, Senator Warnock? Where were you?
Where were you, Senator Warren? Where were you?

Your pockets grew heavy, pharma checks in your hand,
While illness kept spreading all over this land.
You point fingers at change, but the truth cuts through —
The real danger was the nothing you chose to do.

You sat for years, did nothing,
Now you fear the voice that speaks for the weak.
You sat for years, did nothing,
Radical isn’t healing — radical is turning your cheek.
Where were you, Senator Warner? Where were you?
Where were you, Senator Cassidy? Where were you?

Where were you, Senator? Where were you?
The children were crying… but you never moved.
