has kicked off
his one-stop "Rally 4 Peace" tour
at the Royal Farms Arena
in Baltimore
with his new song
aptly titled "Baltimore."
His message is one
that mothers
and fathers
and just humans in general
and probably other species
have tried to rationalize
that "Nobody got in nobody's way
so I guess you could say
it was a good day"
so I guess you could say
it was a good day"
but with the nagging feeling underneath
that "Peace is more
than the absence of war."
Still Fox News
will point out
that the line
"Let's take all
the guns away"
means he's lobbying
for Hillary
and maybe
that's only part of the solution
but then again
they've never claimed
to be part
of the solution.
