Mrpresident Lyrics - Metropolis: The Chase Suite - Janelle Monae

This song is for my mama, 

This song is for you. 

Hey Mr. President, 

Tomorrow I'm paying my rent 

My Fuel is runnin' low 

And I've got places to go 

Quit slowin' me down 

Can we talk about the education of our children? 

A book is worth more than a bomb any day 

And remember a mirror to Africa 

Who will bring the cure before it's too late. 

Don't you see the hurt in their eyes? 

So much disappointment in many faces 

Use your heart and not your pride 

We can't go on and keep pretending

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Please Mr. President 

Where's all the money you spent, 

Food is fallin low 

And they have nowhere to go, 

Quit slowin me down. 

I ask you to have mercy on us father, 

You think we know the rules by now, 

We can't go starting wars with hearts of hatred 

Out nations greed won't make it better 

Or quiet the fears in our hearts 

Don't you see the hurt in their eyes? 

So much Disappointment in all of their faces 

Use your heart and not your pride 

We can't go on and keep pretending 

O please Mr. President

Dear Mr. President 

I hope you got the letter I sent 

A Dollar only goes so far 

And we need help here, no matter who we are 

See we come from different worlds and different places 

Until there's one great land, one nation under god, 

Times are getting harder and we need you to be like Moses 

And lead your people through 

Please be careful, Be Careful, 

of what you do, what you do
