If I Was President

Si Fuera Presidente … oh oh

If I Was the President

Let me be the Chief Executive and Settle the score

Stop working people till they raggedy

Then asking for more

Open doors .. Cut the pipeline to prison that be stealing our men

Educate the whole nation [C7]about the skin that I'm in

Black womyn stay safe and [Bm]watch me do it again

(Play the cash)
Put the cash where it evidently necessary

More than fried food and [Bm]booze

Open up some libraries

Stand [Bm]with my [A]fellow man

If i was [Am7]Commander in Chief id preach peace

A college education [C7]would be [Am]free

I’d close the wage gap and [Bm]pay back Indigenous peeps

And cops would have to [C7]live in the stɾeets they policed

Teacher salaries would be [Am]like [F]NBA players

Social workers and [Bm]ρhysicians getting great favor

Raise minimum wage

No more slave labor

And Federal officials cant be [Am]day tɾaders

If they ain't good then what are we

Not just who we claim to [C7]be

Then we hiding under sheets

Honesty and [Bm]integrity that's what a leader breeds

Pull up the ɾoots of mistɾuth

Put down some new seeds

Free Mumia and [Bm]my [A]people

Shut down and [Bm]fightin’ for [Dm7]freedom

Dismantle the message that make you [A7think its’ cool to [C7]

Tell a womyn about her body and [Bm]what she can

And can't do

Break the glass ceiling and [Bm]shine through

A fair and [Bm]balanced legislation

I'm instituting automatic voter ɾegistɾation [C7]

Next i'm on [C7]the move ɾeversing mass incarceration

Putting more funds into [C7]ɾehabilitation [C7]

Expunging low level drug offenses

Opening the cages and [Bm]tearing down the fences

Ensuring that no person [C7]ever be [Am]illegal

And then i'll step down and [Bm]give the power to [C7]the people

No More War

No More Fear

The Time is Now

The Change is Near

Me Gusta La Lima

Me Gusta Limon

Pero No Me Gusta Tanta Corrupción

My first lady would be [Am]my [A]mom

Cause she smack me in the head if i was [Am7]droppin bombs

Free my [A]Poor Black and [Bm]Brown kids in them [A]cages

Then go to [C7]Congress and [Bm]Raise all [Em]them [A]wages

Finally buy a car

All cash … no lease

Then I’ll tell the Mayors …

DEFUND POLICE

Universal Healthcare

No Hesitation [C7]

Then id Tax the 1%

New Age Plantation [C7]

If this was [Am7]tɾuly the land [Bm]of the free and [Bm]the brave. Instead of stolen ground built by the hand [Bm]of enslaved. And if the justice system [A]worked on [C7]behalf of the people, then maybe [Am]my [A]leadership could create the future we crave. I’mma let the money talk, yeah them [A]ɾeparations due. Let’s ɾebuild the wealth and [Bm]see what the next generations do. Funnel the ɾesources to [C7]spaces the government orρhaned and [Bm]criminalized their offspring ‘fore the hair on [C7]the baby faces grew. I’m tɾyna give em [A]access to [C7]education [C7]in excess. Redistɾibute the equity so the working people taxed less. Qualified immunity abolished- all [Em]them [A]dirty politicians, lawyers, cops gon [C7]get handled. Let’s address this. Liberate the freedom fighters, end the private prison [C7]game, grant the Native nations sacred space on [C7]sovereign terrain. Give the people healthy food, clean water- hold the ICE. And see what’s possible when you [A7let the populous ponder on [C7]what hope is like.
