For the People


Not so ancient Precedents

For the people

Laws and Senate

For the people

President are you

For the people

When power isn't in our hands

We are not equal

Jeprodize our lives

For hateful "free" speech

A government for the people

Looking oh so bleached

Where are my people

On the streets

Where are my people

Struggling to eat

If the government is meant for the people

We need more relief

Im going broke

To be educated

Paying back years later

By then it's inflated

For the sake of my people

I hope that I make it
