23rd Amendment
Empowering Voices: 23rd Amendment Anthem for Equality
Lyrics
Why won’t you, count on me?
Expressing a desire for trust and reliance from others.
Represent, equally
Advocating for fair and equal representation.
I have a tax on everything I pay.
Indicating a tax burden on various aspects of life.
I really think that I should have more say.
Expressing a need for increased influence or participation.
We need control over our own affairs
Calling for autonomy in managing local issues.
Before our country goes beyond repair
Expressing concern about potential irreparable damage to the country.
Why won’t you, count on me?
Reiterating the desire for trust and reliance.
Represent, equally
Re-emphasizing the call for fair and equal representation.
We want our Congress to give us some say
Expressing a wish for public involvement in decision-making.
It sure would be nice to feel like a state
Desiring a sense of belonging and importance like a state.
DC seems small but it is mighty strong
Highlighting the strength and significance of the small-sized DC.
Make our voices heard beyond this song
Encouraging the amplification of voices beyond the confines of a song.
Why won’t you, count on me?
Repeating the plea for trust and reliance.
Represent, equally
Reiterating the call for fair and equal representation.
Count on me
Re-emphasizing the need for trust and reliance.
To make a change, on Election Day
Expressing a desire for active participation on Election Day.
Why won’t you, count on me?
Repeating the plea for trust and reliance.
Represent, equally
Reiterating the call for fair and equal representation.
