Dear Mr. President |
Dear President, on behalf of the poor |
I am writin' you a letter, hope it hits your front door |
If you do happen to read it, I just hope you don’t ignore |
You still got money for war but can’t feed the poor |
Mr. President, if you open, can you come and sit with us? |
At least try to explain why the police keep killin' us |
Or they locked us up in jail and throw the key away |
On behalf of the ghetto, see if we okay |
Dear Mr. President, I hope this missile finds you free |
My intention’s not to criticize but be the sight for blind to see |
Penitentiaries built up, schools steady tore down |
Take the riches from the rich man, envision life poor now |
Communities is filled with drugs, corners covered by the thugs |
Homeless men live in the streets, no blankets, covers or rugs |
Sister’s smokin' on some dope, aggravated, bein' broke |
To ease the pain, needle came, now they shootin' just to cope |
God hear me if you can, hopefully I can reach this man |
Take a couple seconds to read my letter to the President |
Mr. President, I don’t wanna cause no trouble |
But then again the ghetto is the reason why we hustle |
Tell us now, be for real, what’s your beef with Mexico? |
You think buildin' up a wall really send a message though? |
Drug prices finna soar, streets gon' get so messy, bro |
Murder rate gon' rise like gas at Texaco |
Dear President, on behalf of the poor |
I am writin' you a letter, hope it hits your front door |
If you do happen to read it, I just hope you don’t ignore |
You still got money for war but can’t feed the poor |
Mr. President, if you open, can you come and sit with us? |
At least try to explain why the police keep killin' us |
Or they locked us up in jail and throw the key away |
On behalf of the ghetto, see if we okay |
Obama gave us hope, he became Martin’s dream |
Malcolm gave us strength 'cause we fight by any means |
Huey gave us heart, take no shit from all them pigs |
Marcus Garvey gave us smarts, to return to where we live |
Harriet freed slaves, could freed many more |
But they knew not they was slaves, as we know not we are poor |
Julie Lynch rolled some paper, gave the masters master plans |
Former kings of the motherland, became master’s man |
All I’m sayin', Mr. President, understand we have a reason |
Do not trust no more Americans in this country full of treason |
Espionage and betrayal, triumph but we fail |
Democratic or republican, still donkeys with no tail |
Pen us up in jail |
Espionage and betrayal, triumph but we fail |
Democratic or republican, donkeys with no tail |
Dear President, on behalf of the poor |
I am writin' you a letter, hope it hits your front door |
If you do happen to read it, I just hope you don’t ignore |
You still got money for war but can’t feed the poor |
Mr. President, if you open, can you come and sit with us? |
At least try to explain why the police keep killin' us |
Or they locked us up in jail and throw the key away |
On behalf of the ghetto, see if we okay |
