Barack Obama:
They said this day would never come,
They said our sights were set too high,
They said this country was too divided,
Too disillusioned to ever come together around a common purpose, They said......

They forgot us on the block, got us in a box,
Solitary confinement, il rally on these cops,
They need an early retirement, how many rallys will i watch,
I aint got it in me to march, i gotta send me to spark,
The games in a drought, public housing projects cookin up in a pyrex,
My set, my click either getting money or running homicide childless sift they aint dodge yet,
Tryna be rich, still pledging alligence, a predicate villain, a ghetto leader,
Living my poetical genius to whoever may need it, i bleed this so queensbridge,
Now living with my feet up, never defeated,
So a president is needed,
you know these coloured folks and Negros, hate to see one of they own succeedin,
America surprised us and let a black man guide us

Whats the black pres thinking on election night,
Is it how can i protect my life? Protect my wife? Protect my rights?
Every other president was nothing less than white,
Except Thomas Jefferson a mixed Indian blood and Calvin Coolidge,
Kkk is like what the fuck, loading they guns up, loading up mines to,
Ready to ride coz I'm riding with my crew, he dies we die too,
Yea but on a positive side, i think Obama provides hope,
And challenges minds or all races and colours,
To erase hate, and try to love one another, so many political snakes,
We in need of a break, I'm thinking I can trust this brother,
But will he keep it way real, every innocent nigga in jail get shot up in the field?
When he wins will he really care still? I feel

Say a pray if we do what we have to,
You aint right Jeremiah WRONG pastor,
Love what a slave master, silly yall U.S.As most brave rapper,
Jesse carjacker, uncle john kidnapper,
Ask around Bentley coupe of the richter, bitch call life i pimped her whatttt?
Politics, politricks clan shooter,
Seeking for defence, progress producer,
Nothing on the stove a survival booster,
Gotta do what we gotta do,
We aint got no governors coming through to help,
Anything we need, we gotta do for self,
New improved jfk on the way, it aint the 60s again,
Niggaz aint hippies again,
We aint falling for the same traps, standing on the balconies where they shot the king at,
McCain got apologies, aint nobody hearin that,
People need honesty!!!!!
