"My dad was named after a Civil War general, and he voted for Barack Obama twice," wrote Wilco's Jeff Tweedy in a post accompanying a new track released in response to the race driven violence last weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia. "He used to say 'If you know better, you can do better.' America – we know better. We can do better." The song's lyrics include:

**“All lives, all lives you say,**  
**I can see you are afraid.**  
**Your skin is so thin**  
**your heart has escaped."**
