Mr. President |
Dear Mr. President, with all due respect |
Wish we could have a conversation |
I would take a trip down to your residence |
And we would talk about the state of the nation |
Mr. President, I would ask you about the war |
Really and truly, what is it for? |
When a I.E.D. |
make a soldier fall |
Is he dying for something above us all? |
Is it all about him at the end of the day |
Is a pledge of allegiance just something to say |
I hope not, cuz I love the U.S.A |
Despite of all the drama we have today |
Mr. President are you aware? |
Our flesh and blood is dying over there |
When the coffins come back, do you care? |
When only the poor kids die, is it fair? |
If I could talk to the President |
Would he pay attention, really listen? |
If I could talk real intelligent |
Would he beware and then change his position? |
Now is time, time, time |
For me to speak my mind, mind, mind |
Don’t get me wrong, I respect the flag |
But it hurt to see a kid in a body bag |
He fought for his country with all he had |
Now he have a family without a dad |
With a mama crying, the kids is scared |
9/11, why were we unprepared? |
Mr. President, are you aware? |
Unless you rich you have poor health care |
Makes you scream and wanna pull out your hair |
Discharged from hospitals as soon as you get there |
Mr. President, truth or dare |
Terrorists are hiding, and you know where |
Illegal immigrants are everywhere |
Is it really their fault, they wanted to come here |
I respect you, please be clear |
But talk with me, show the people you care |
What am I to do, have you wiggle any you |
Tell me something that I just make sense |
You sent us off to war, please be honest what it’s for |
Does it matter if it’s life or death? |
I’m not Republican or Democrat |
I’m independent and I want the facts |
When are the soldiers coming back? |
Are we prepared for a terror attack? |
Late at night I watch CNN |
It gets so bad, I might stop breathing |
The Middle East hates us, what’s the reason? |
Mr. President, my heart is bleeding |
Tuck my kids in every evening |
Try to teach them to keep believing |
Hoping my government won’t deceive them |
Tell 'em, touch your goals, you could achieve them |
Mr. President, I have to know |
If I die for you, what will I have to show |
Will it really and truly help our country go? |
I’m waiting for your answer, let me know |
