Dear mr President

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 can 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 eyes and tell me why?

Dear Mr. President, were you a lonely boy?
(Were you a lonely boy?)
Were you a lonely boy?
(Were you a lonely boy?)
How can you say no child is left behind when half dumb and half blind
They're all sitting in your cells while you pave the road to hell?

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
What kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
'Cause we've come a long way from whisky and cocaine

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 eyes?

Let me tell you about hard work
Rebuilding your house after bombs took them away
Let me tell you about hard work
A million miles away with a baby on the way
Let me tell you about hard work
Building a bed out of cardboard boxes
Let me tell you about hard work, hard work, hard work
You know nothing about hard work, hard work, hard work

Dear Mr. President, come take a walk with me
