"Estamos en un estado de crisis, la gente está muriendo... Mientras forras tus bolsillos profundamente" son palabras de una canción dura y comprometida.
"Commander in Chief", toma partido
Demi Lovato contaba recientemente que "muchas veces he querido escribirle una carta al presidente o sentarme con él y hacerle estas preguntas". Con esa reflexión hablaba para CNN completando un mensaje claro: "luego pensé, realmente no quiero hacer eso, creo que una mejor forma de hacerlo es escribir una canción y publicarla para que todo el mundo la escuche y luego él tenga que responderles a todos y no solo a mí".
Con ese talante, acaba de publicar el vídeo de su canción tras haber actuado en los premios Billboard con una crítica directa al presidente de EEUU Donald Trump.
Coescrito por Demi Lovato con Julia Michaels, FINNEAS, Justin Tranter y Eren Cannata, una declaración política con la intención de movilizar el voto en las elecciones presidenciales de su país.

El vídeo muestra a estadounidenses de diferentes edades y razas uniéndose como un país unido antes de las elecciones presidenciales del 3 de noviembre. Demi dice dos cosas comprometidas: "únanse a mí y voten en las elecciones de este año" y "no me importa si esto arruina mi carrera”.
Vídeo clip de la canción
Were you ever taught when you were young
If you mess with things selfishly, they're bound to come undone?
I'm not the only one
That's been affected and resented every story you've spun
And I'm a lucky one
'Cause they are people worse off that have suffered enough
Haven't they suffered enough?
But you can't get enough of
Shutting down systems for pеrsonal gain
Fighting fires with liars and praying for rain
Do you get off on pain?
We'rе not pawns in your game
Commander in chief, honestly
If I do the things you do
I couldn't sleep, seriously
Do you even know the truth?
We're in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in chief, how does it feel to still be able to breathe?
Able to breathe
We were taught when we were young
If we fight for what's right, there won't be justice for just some
Won't give up, stand our ground
We'll be in the streets while you're bunkering down
Loud and proud, best believe
We'll still take a knee while you're
Commander in chief, honestly
If I do the things you do
I couldn't sleep, seriously
Do you even know the truth?
We're in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in chief, how does it feel to still be able to breathe?
Be able to breathe
Won't give up, stand our ground
We'll be in the streets while you're bunkering down
Won't give up, stand our ground
We'll be in the streets while you're
Commander in chief, honestly
If I do the things you do
I couldn't sleep, seriously
Do you even know the truth?
We're in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in chief, how does it feel to still be able to breathe?
Able to breathe
