During the last fractious election campaign The Woolfman, an accomplished producer and composer witnessed an interview with Spike Lee, who made the statement “Make America Love Again”. That night the song emerged from a dream in just a few moments. It is driven by the impulse to “Heal the Soul of America” rooted in Gospel Music – based on the feeling that “the idea of America” – can be a force for good.
Although The Woolfman is British, he is a member of the global community. What affects America affects everyone worldwide with key decisions to come in 2024 which will shape all our futures.
“This song can bring together people from all parts of the USA with different views and ideas who have a common love for their country and its constitution. Who believe that America is ultimately a force for good in the world and that where the US leads the world follows. Who believe that the US is the ultimate international guarantor of peace freedom and democracy. Who believe in love, tolerance and respect for all human beings no matter their gender race or beliefs. Who believe that we all have a right to live in safety from violence, to have food on our table, to feel safe and secure and to educate our children to be the best person and best citizen they can be”.
The Woolfman does not seek compensation and willingly licenses the song free of charge to the Democratic party for use during their election campaign and beyond.
Maybe it’s time we embrace the simple gift of a song which can bring people together, open their hearts and bring a sense of humanity back to our lives.
ONE SONG CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
We want to make America Love Again and to make America Laugh Again…with joy!
LYRICS
“I want to make America love again, make America love again
Make America – don’t know when – before it’s too late
Before it’s too late, before it’s too late
I want to make America love again, before it’s too late
From slavery to Kennedy from Roosevelt to Vietnam
From Washington to Lexington from LBJ to Birmingham
Haight Ashbury to NBC, Bay of Pigs to WMD, this is not all that I see when looking at my history
From Spike Lee to World War II, the D-day we were there for you .. before it’s too late
Before it’s too late, before it’s too late
I want to make America love again, before it’s too late
We talked about the CIA black power 1968
Kent State George Jackson big reaction, Soledad when you love your brother
If you want to police the world, with pride and with your flag unfurled
What are the values that you spread what is the cost in bodies dead
Of bullets in our children’s lives swing and salsa twist and jive
Blues and hip hop every night, it’s these that keep our world alive
Before it’s too late, before it’s too late
I want to make America love again, make America love again
Make America love again before it’s too late”
