Lyrics

No justice, no peace No justice, no peace No justice, no peace No justice, no peace Dear Mr. President, come take a walk with me Let's pretend we're just two people and You're not better than me I'd like to ask you some questions if we could speak honestly What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street? Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep? What do you feel when you look in the mirror? Are you proud? How do you sleep while the rest of us cry? How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye? How do you walk with your head held high? Can you even look me in the eye? And tell me why? (Hands up! Don't shoot!) (Hands up! Don't shoot!) (Hands up! Don't shoot!) Dear Mr. President Are you a lonely boy? (Are you a lonely boy?) Are you a spoiled boy? (Are you a spoiled boy?) How can you say that no child is left behind? We're not dumb, and we're not blind You sent their parents to different places Then left them sitting in your cages What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away? What kind of man thinks a marriage isn't right if you are gay? I can only imagine what the first lady has to say Does she only talk, when she copies it all? How do you sleep while the rest of us cry? How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye? How do you walk with your head held high? Can you even look me in the eye? Let me tell you 'bout hard work Minimum wage with a baby on the way Let me tell you 'bout hard work Can't afford the cast so you live with the pain Let me tell you 'bout hard work Building a bed out of a cardboard box Let me tell you 'bout hard work Hard work, hard work You don't know nothing 'bout hard work Hard work, hard work Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh How do you sleep? Dear Mr. President You'd never take a walk with me Would you?
