🎤 “Wrong Turn on a One-Way Street” – Protest Anthem with a Pulse
This hard-hitting rock ballad channels the chaos, fear, and fallout of the Cuypers tasing incident into a haunting anthem of injustice. With lyrics soaked in sorrow and defiance, the song tells the true story of a young food delivery driver who, after taking a wrong turn, found himself at the business end of panic and power.
