Okay, So- Does Anyone On Tumblr Have An Idea For This One?

Okay, so- does anyone on Tumblr have an idea for this one?

So lately, I've started writing songs, for a musical i thought would be fun to make out of a fantasy story i like. Now, one of the songs i planned to make is about a character who comes from a family of nazi-equivelents who held high positions of power in the movement, explaining to another character, who is of high status but new to the world's politics, the principles behind their nazi-equivelent movement's ideology. The current working title of the song is "we were once great, but we have fallen".

Thing is, i can't think of a melody that could fit. Every time i try, the only things that pop into my head are either the star wars "pam pam pam pa pa-pam pa pa-pam" or "tomorrow belongs to me", neither of which fit the atmosphere I'm aiming for (the first isn't sincere enough, the second has lines that are short in a way that fits an abstract song about principles but not an expository one). Does anyone have an idea for how i should even... Go about making a melody? And i need to have a melody, or at least a structure for the lyrics, in order to make the actual words for the song around it.

you deserve grace. You deserve internal peace. I don't care if you've hurt people. I don't care if you knew you were hurting people. I don't care how much. There's no such thing as not enough suffering. If people who have experienced trauma by your hands don't want to forgive you, that is their right, but it doesn't render you and your life and your joy invaluable. No ifs, no buts. You are more than the worst thing you have ever done, and more than the opinion of you that belongs to the person who has the most justification to hate you. YOU ARE MORE THAN THE HARM YOU HAVE CAUSED.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you're going around calling older autistic people Nazis for identifying with the name of the condition they were literally diagnosed with, you are worse than them. Like, by far. Like, it's not even a competition.

Okay but like- did anybody else who was born as some combination of white/rich/male (this one specifically isn't from my experience but the same discourse applies)/able bodied/from a loving family... But then also autistic (in a way that could be masked for a very long time as "just being weird" with the added bonus of ending up lowkey highkey believing you're a failure of a human being), who went online at an age where they were WAY too young for that, got into Tumblr radical leftie discourse, heard people say words that, if taken literally, mean that they want you dead for your privileges, took that literally, because they were an autistic child who didn't understand the internet yet, and had that mess up their sense of self worth (which was already not doing great thanks to a, so far, entire life of outsiderness and social isolation, yeah?) so badly that to this day it's imprinted on some corner of their belief system "my privileged identities make me an inherently evil oppressor, if I killed myself all my unjust privileges could go to the people who actually need them" in a way that they never quite managed to unlearn, no matter how obvious the ridiculousness of it has became as they grew up?

... Or was it just me?

... Don't give internet access to kids that are still in elementary school.
