And all he did was give people a voice and he was a voice.

And I said, this has to go in the song.

So the first thing the music business said, the couple of people that I played it for, they said, man, we can really help you with this song, but you got to take that line out and we can't take it to radio.

So I'm not, I'm not taking the line out.

And then he told me it was too right wing.

I heard things like it was too right wing.

And I was like, what?

You know, and I've been doing this for 40 years and, and you know,

No, straight to number one.

And there's a reason for it.

And so a guy like me, who's an independent guy, like yourself, who built your thing very independently through some of the same stuff you've gone through, right?

I have to find platforms that will play the song, conservative platforms, of course.

So I have to go find random things that aren't in the music business to prop me up to at least get it heard.

I'm going out and playing it live for people.

They're standing on their feet.

But I can't get arrested as far as getting it played on the normal music industry platforms.

So that is the fight.

But you've got to remember that.

The 60s hippie culture was built on Rolling Stone magazine, Billboard magazine, all these left narrative magazines that propped up all those songs of that culture and got us to where we are right now.

And we need the same thing on our end.
