[Verse 1]

Six years in the Air Force
Made it to E-4 Rank
With the Ninety-Fourth Intelligence Squadron
Awarded a medal of commendation

On this election interference
The intel report was plain and laid bare
For this job with the NSA
The intel was there, just couldn't look away

What have you done, Reality Winner?
Reality Winner, what have you done?
What have you done, Reality Winner?
Reality Winner, what have you done?


This jail is a stone-cold answer
The biggest mistake of a Texas lifetime
In this ballad of the commander-in-chief
Is there any mercy for this standing belief?

Felt like gaslighting, not something to just accept
Proud to serve, just not this President
Those that seek the truth will find the answers
Those that seek the truth will find the answers


What have you done, Reality Winner?
Reality Winner, what have you done?
What have you done, Reality Winner?
Reality Winner, what have you done?


What have you done, Reality Winner?
Reality Winner, what have you done?
What have you done? What have you done?
What have you done? What have you done?
