[00:32.71] | This song is for my mama |
[00:37.92] | This song is for you |
[00:41.52] | Hey Mr President |
[00:46.39] | Tomorrow I’m paying my rent |
[00:50.88] | My Fuel is runnin’ low |
[00:56.51] | And I’ve got places to go |
[01:00.38] | Quit slowin’ me down |
[01:02.11] | |
[01:03.18] | Can we talk about the education of our children |
[01:08.35] | A book is worth more than a bomb any day |
[01:12.79] | And remember a mirror to Africa |
[01:18.09] | Who will bring the cure before it’s too late |
[01:23.41] | Don’t you see the hurt in their eyes |
[01:28.09] | So much disappointment in many faces |
[01:33.14] | Use your heart and not your pride |
[01:38.32] | We can’t go on and keep pretending |
[01:41.85] | Please Mr President |
[01:44.91] | |
[01:47.02] | Where’s all the money you spent |
[01:51.85] | Food is fallin low |
[01:57.53] | And they have nowhere to go |
[02:00.65] | Quit slowin me down |
[02:03.52] | I ask you to have mercy on us father |
[02:08.01] | You think we know the rules by now |
[02:11.49] | We can’t go starting wars with hearts of hatred |
[02:16.04] | Out nations greed won’t make it better |
[02:19.29] | Or quiet the fears in our hearts |
[02:24.16] | Don’t you see the hurt in their eyes |
[02:28.53] | So much Disappointment in all of their faces |
[02:33.83] | Use your heart and not your pride |
[02:38.85] | We can’t go on and keep pretending |
[02:41.43] | O please Mr President |
[02:44.80] | Dear Mr President |
[02:51.88] | |
[03:23.54] | I hope you got the letter I sent |
[03:32.64] | A Dollar only goes so far |
[03:37.76] | And we need help here no matter who we are |
[03:44.32] | See we come from different worlds and different places |
[03:49.80] | Until there’s one great land one nation under god |
[03:55.50] | Times are getting harder and we need you to be like Moses |
[04:01.89] | And lead your people through |
[04:05.96] | Please be careful Be Careful |
[04:10.60] | Of what you do what you do |
