Mr. President Sample - Lyrics

[Intro - George W. Bush sample]
It's just uh, you know it's just uh, uh, I just don't understand
This just doesn't make any sense to me...

[Carlos B.]
(Bar 1) Mr. President the slums are our residence
(Bar 2) Mr. President there's guns in our residence

{Jay-Z Sample}
(Bar 3) Mr. President there's drugs in our residence
(Bar 4) Tell us what you want us to do, come break bread wit' us

[Carlos B.]
(Bar 1) When I rhyme I feel like 'Pac in his prime
(Bar 2) Tryna' grind in 2009, losin' his mind...I heard
(Bar 3) They're shuttin' down Guantanamo Bay, or so they say
(Bar 4) We were fed that shit back in the day
(Bar 5) Google "School of the Americas" where gun-totting terrorists
(Bar 6) Trained by North Americans slayed Central Americans
(Bar 7) What's goin' on these days?
(Bar 8) A continent crippled by AIDS is dying away
(Bar 9) While the Pope's talkin' 'bout abortions and gays
(Bar 10) He turns a blind eye to the poor of today, I love...
(Bar 11) Warren Buffet, that man had billions and said fuck it!
(Bar 12) I'll give thirty-seven (billion) to the public!
(Bar 13) Not for nothin, Carlos Slim's down in Mexico buggin'
(Bar 14) Cuz he can wipe his ass with that cousin!
(Bar 15) Niggas that's rich, niggas adore, though
(Bar 16) Excessive wealth is why niggas still poor so...

[Chorus]
(Bar 1) Mr. President the slums are our residence
(Bar 2) Mr. President there's guns in our residence
(Bar 3) Mr. President there's drugs in our residence
(Bar 4) Tell us what you want us to do, break bread with us
(Bar 5) In my residence, thugs are the residents
(Bar 6) Drugs are the nourishment, ignorance a pestilence
(Bar 7) In my residence, cash they embezzle it
(Bar 8) Cats get arrested and, girls are impressed with it

[Carlos B.]
(Bar 1) Mr. President do you know what privelege is?
(Bar 2) Privelege is when you don't catch the sick-enesses
(Bar 3) Of the masses, it means you take classes at Yale
(Bar 4) Do coke and still pass if you fail...
(Bar 5) ...
(Bar 6) ...
