Why do we like this?

Father John Misty has been regularly releasing new tracks throughout the year and his latest, "Holy Hell," hangs heavy with political and social messages.

Misty is no Trump fan -- as shown by his cover of Tim Heidecker's anti-Trump tune "Trump's Private Pilot" -- and this piano ballad questions where his and the rest of America's future is heading. 

While it's quite depressing, Misty uses the last verse to address the listener and inspire us to make the world a better place despite how bad it seems.

“But all my friends, yeah, I’m talking to you / The world won’t end unless we want it to / There’s no one in control / And it’s our life to choose.”
