Eric Anders and Mark O'Bitz release "Join the Fight"

Eric Anders and Mark O'Bitz released "Join the Fight" with the hope that one of the progressive Democratic candidates would pick it up as a campaign song.  It didn't work.  Bernie?  Elizabeth?  Pete?  Kamala?  Here are the lyrics and credits:

Join the Fight 
(Anders, O’Bitz 2019)

From the start
If we all play it right
Shouldn’t have
To fight to stay alive
To get what we need
And to bring it home every night

Shouldn’t have to fight
For our basic rights

But now it’s time to fight, our fight
It’s our time and our rights, alright
It’s time to join the fight
I hope we set it right

From our start
There were never equal rights
“Self evident”
If “self” is male and white
Even then only money men
Ever could secure their rights

And so we had to fight
With no end in sight

And now it’s time to fight, our fight
It’s our time and our rights, alright
It’s time to join the fight
So we can set it right

And I’ve seen us falling
But maybe we were never so high
We all know what’s coming
If we don’t keep up the good fight

But now it’s time to fight
It’s our time and our rights
It’s time to join the fight
So we can set it right

But now it’s time to fight
It’s our time and our rights
It’s time to join the fight
So we can set it right
So we can set it right
