You know I just can't leave y'all with all bad news
That'll make me worse than them
Right? So this is it right here
This is good news
I got good news
This is good news
I got good news
I got good news
If I was editor-in-chief
Here's the news I'd choose for the viewers, read the wire
Downtown, a homeless man received a dollar from a white collar
Who usually don't care who was impoverished
Nouveau-Riche, slim fit, Dockers creased too tight to reach in his pockets
But today, he actually took the time to read the sign
I'm a disabled vet, trying to get something to eat
Two kids, a family to feed
Please, anything helps, even a smile
In his tears, he saw a man's real fears
Each drop a mile walked
Empathetic choked up talk, you just like me
In sports today, athletes are still taking knees
Tired of taking L's
Everybody protesting even Spike Lee
Activism on a winning streak that's three in a row
Kaepernick led come back
Opioid crisis on ice
Athletes sufficed long as they got trees to blow
Barry Bonds elected first ballot for the hall
Looked in the crowd told Pete Rose to come along
D. Rose finally came back to the crib to play ball
In local news, the rose that grew from concrete is sprawling
Into a whole community garden
Putting a plethora of food on all tables
Villages now have their own health departments
Shout out to Ms. Mabel
Her home went into foreclosure but her daughters support her
Teamed up and pooled resources big bag
Passed the inspection flipped that
Invested in a multi-unit apartment
Setting a new model for others to follow
In cooperative economics
Speaking of the economy
Bezos decided to give away all of the money
That Amazon was supposed to pay
In taxes to various charities internationally
Challenging everybody else in his bracket to match it
The biggest collective gift in history
Signaling a shift in wealth distribution
The mystery solved, officially fall
Back to moderate temperatures
Reduction in greenhouse gases we sending up
Resulted in an increase in glacial increments
Now palatial for polar bears and emperor penguins
No fences up, borders opened
And America regained its status
As the land of hope, opportunity, and passion
Taking on the world's huddled entire masses
Reparations for everybody, based off past mishappenings
Praise God, Allah, Yahweh
Interfaith coalitions for Christians, Jews, Muslims, and Catholics
Open houses held at synagogues, temples, and masjids
Even in writing this I got to asking myself
If this is all too simple
Or if we make it hard on ourselves
I'm wondering what Lauryn Hill must've went through
Signed autographs after the concert till her face was blue
I'm sorry for making you wait, y'all
I just fixed the news
Wasn't that good
Imagine if the normal news was that positive
This is good news
I got good news
This is good news
I got good news
This is good news
I got good news
I got good news
This is good news
I got good news
This is good news
I got good news
This is good news
I got good news
I got good news
