Lyrics:
[Barack Obama - taken from victory speech in Iowa] They said this day would never come... [crowd cheers loudly] They said, our sights were set too high. [crowd still wooing] This country is too divided; too disillusioned To ever come together around a common purpose. They said... " [Repeat 2X] ("Although it seems heaven-sent, we ain't ready, to have a black president" - [2Pac]) [Singers {Barack Obama}] Yes we can... Change the world... {Change the world... } [Chorus:] ("Although it seems heaven-sent, we ain't ready, to have a black president" - [2Pac]) [repeat 2X] Yes we can... Change the world... (The world, the world, the world...) [Nas] They forgot us on the block, got us in the box Solitary confinement, how violent are these cops? They need a early retirement How many rallies will I watch? I ain't got it in me to march I got a Semi to spark, the game's in a drought Public housing, projects, cookin up in the Pyrex My set, my clique, either gettin money Or runnin from homicide trail, that's if they ain't died yet Tryna be rich, still I'm pledging allegiance A predicate felon, a ghetto leader Lendin my poetical genius, to who-Ever may need it I bleed this from Queensbridge, now living with my feet up Never defeated, so a president's needed You know these colored folks and Negros hate to see One of they own succeeding America, surprise us, and let a black man guide us [Repeat 2X] ("Although it seems heaven-sent, we ain't ready, to have a black president" - [2Pac]) [Singers {Barack Obama}] Yes we can... Change the world... {Change the world... } [Chorus:] [Nas] What's the black pres' thinkin on election night? Is it, "How can I protect my life? Protect my wife? Protect my rights?" Every other president was nuttin' less than white 'Cept Thomas Jefferson and mixed Indian blood and Calvin Coolidge Kkk is like, "What the fuck!", loadin they guns up Loadin up mines too, ready to ride 'Cause I'm ridin with my crew - he dies, we die too Yeah, but on the positive side I think Obama provides hope, and challenges minds Of all races and colors to erase the hate And try to love one another; so many political snakes We in need of a break, I'm thinkin I can trust this brotha ... But will he keep it way real? Every innocent nigga in jail, gets out on appeal When he wins, will he really care still? I feel... [Repeat 2X] ("Although it seems heaven-sent, we ain't ready, to have a black president" - [2Pac]) [Singers {Barack Obama}] Yes we can... Change the world... {Change the world... } [Chorus:] [Nas] Say a prayer for "Do we have to?" You ain't right, Jeremiah Wrong pastor In love with a slave master Sincerely yours, usa's most brave rapper Jesse carjacker, Uncle tom kidnapper Ask around, Bently Coupe off the Richter Bitch called Life, I pimped her, what? Politics, politricks, Klan shooter Deacon for defense, progress producer Nothing on the stove, a survival booster Gotta do what we gotta do We ain't got no governors comin through to help! Anything we need done, gotta do for self New, improved jfk on the way It ain't the 60s' again, niggas ain't hippies again We ain't fallin for the same traps Standin on the balconies, where they shot the King at Mccain got apoligies, ain't nobody hearin that People need honesty! [Repeat 2X] ("Although it seems heaven-sent, we ain't ready, to have a black president" - [2Pac]) [Singers {Barack Obama}] Yes we can... Change the world... {Change the world... } [Chorus:] [Governor Bill Richardson] It is my distinct honor, and privilege to introduce The next President of the United States - Barack Obama [Crowd cheers loudly]
