What About Us?

Yeah yeah, yo

Mister president the world is watching
Your gonna hear it often
The last administration left us coughing
9/11 dust, bringing death to us
That health is privatized
And hospitals won't tend to us
And it's rough, getting laid off
Knowing CEO's are payed off
Big scams, that crippled me and my fam
And you seem like a good brother but I've got to wander
Your in DC with some of those that put us under
And I'm glad to have a man of your demeanor as a leader
But if the flick is Pulp Fict, I think you'll be the cleaner
Harvey Keitel played the character well
So the real criminals dont ever sit in a cell
Is that your position?
To keep the citizens from tipping, to government the fuck over cause we've been Fucked over?
I'd like to be more optimistic but the world is twisted
A new America? Oh shit I think I missed it

Some of us are feeling conflict in our heart
Are we seeing real change or just another false start?
(Obama)i hope he speaks from the heart
Are we seeing real change or just another false start?

It seems I got a conflict in my heart
Are we seeing real change or just another false start?
(Obama) it's tough to tell them apart
Are we really seeing change?

Now I hate to be the bad news agitator
But I was sent to be the large crowd captivator
I'm a natural I never use no activator
Its hard to find the realest people
Cause were after paper
Chase the shit like rats in a maze (it's the craze)
Our perspectives are reflective of what headlines say
Plus the stress in the air made you, lose your mind
And get our babies out tumultuous types
Since the campaign was hoping change
I feel this open range, for us to think critically
And then explode the game
Construct something better, eliminate the cheddar
Cause when wealth is involved it seems our morals wither
My hopes are so high, I seek my own sky
The possibility's are limitless
But no flies
If you want something different, rise up!
I've got to see it with my eyes before my times up!

All these charades and shenanigans, made us a fan again
Don't you see the systems got the upper hand again?
Do your best impersonation of a mannequin
But when they detonate the bombs, don't panic man
This is one nation, one agenda
Dominate the globe, full control with no surrender
I remember being young and so oblivious
Before I realized that shit's so serious
A 195 countries on the globe, a 191 governments under American control
Military bases in their faces,in many places
It's hard to find an oasis without our traces
Think they gonna let Obama stop the flow of dough?
I think No, or we'll be witnessing an overthrow
Bankers run this shit don't get it twisted
Ain't nothing personal here, it's just business

America!
