Verse 1 -
Yea I been there before seen it all in the middle of war
seen bodies stuck on trees man its crazy ya'll
its funny what the soul can learn to endure

Yea, then they tried to kill me, death threats to my phone in sinhalese and Tamil too damn you fools now the wars over what you gon' do
And it's funny cuz' they said I was wrong now everybody want to do a army song
Yo check it out man the armies gone
Our president brought freedom home

Verse 2 -
Yes now it's time to stand up
A black president doesn't mean we let up
He represents so much more than just that all ethnic groups got his back
But, in LA we waring, Blacks and Latinos settling scores
when world democracy is just collapsing
North Korea threatening action
The Middle East still got their factions
South Africa way too many sanctions
And I ask how do we help one step at a time forgive thyself
Let's mak peace with brothers those that you hate that you think are suckas
Be the bigger man cuz' in times like this yall all we have
Repeat Hook
