Lyrics:

Yeah
The First Amendment says
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion
Or prohibiting the free exercise thereof
Or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press
Or the right of the people peaceably to assemble
And to petition the Government for a redress of grievances
So what I'd like to do
Is ask our President a few questions
With respect
Talk to them now
Dear Mr. President, with all due respect
Wish we could have a conversation
I would take a trip down to your residence
And we would talk about the state of the nation
Mr. President, I would ask you about the war
Really and truly, what is it for?
When a I.E.D. make a soldier fall
Is he dying for something above us all?
Is it all about him at the end of the day
Is a pledge of allegiance just something to say
I hope not 'cause I love the USA
Despite of all the drama we have today
Mr. President are you aware?
Our flesh and blood is dying over there
When the coffins come back, do you care?
When only the poor kids die, is it fair?
If I could talk to the President
Would he pay attention, really listen?
If I say something intelligent
Would he be willing to change his position?
Now it's time, time, time
For me to speak my mind, mind, mind
Don't get me wrong, I respect the flag
But it hurt to see a kid in a body bag
He fought for his country with all he had
Now he have a family without a dad
With a mama crying and the kids are scared
9/11, why were we unprepared?
Mr. President, are you aware?
Unless you rich, you have poor health care
Makes you scream and wanna pull out your hair
Discharged from hospitals soon as you get there
Mr. President, truth or dare?
Terrorists are hiding, and you know where
Illegal immigrants are everywhere
Is it really their fault, they wanted to come here
I respect you, please be clear
But talk with me, show the people you care
If I could talk to the President
Would he pay attention, really listen?
If I say something intelligent
Would he be willing to change his position?
Now it's time, time, time
For me to speak my mind, mind, mind
The children didn't say
What am I to do, I've been waiting near you
Tell me something that I just make sense
You sent us off to war, please be honest what it's for
Does it matter if it's life or death? Yeah
I'm not Republican or Democrat
I'm independent and I want the facts
When are the soldiers coming back?
Are we prepared for a terror attack?
Late at night I watch CNN
It gets so bad, I might stop breathing
The Middle East hates us, what's the reason?
Mr. President, my heart is bleeding
I tuck my kids in every evening
Try to teach them to keep believing
Hoping my government won't deceive them
Tell 'em, touch your goals, you could achieve them
Mr. President, I have to know
If I die for you, what will I have to show?
Will it really and truly help our country grow?
I'm waiting for your answer, let me know
If I could talk to the President
Would he pay attention, really listen?
If I say something intelligent
Would he be willing to change his position?
Now it's time, time, time
For me to speak my mind, mind, mind
Now it's time, time, time
For me to speak my mind, mind, mind
Now it's time, time, time
For me to speak my mind, mind, mind
Now it's time
