If you are into blues with a little bit of soul - this is one of the best political songs I've heard

Been listening to this a lot since last Tuesday. Wanted to share this amazing song.
Lyrics below video




People, People
Don’t you know you have a voice?
People, People
Don’t you know you have a choice?

TV screens and corrupt magazines
Man on the radio
Says he knows what you need
Planting seeds that just mislead
Can’t be taken back
You watch them grow and then you’ll know
How much you’ve been lead
Oh how can you say there’s nothing wrong
when it’s gone on too long?

People, People
What more can I say?
Let’s get ourselves together
Too much at stake to look away


Don’t buy him don’t bump for her
She’s likely to be bought
Don’t buy her don’t vote for him
Power’s his only thought
Confusion and disillusion
Proud of your mind
Until a big decision is too hard to find
How can you say there’s nothing wrong?
When it’s going on too long

People, People
They said you’d free your mind
People, People
Don’t you think it’s about time?


How can you say there’s nothing wrong?
When its gone on too long

People, People
Don’t you know you have a voice?
People, People
Don’t you know you have a choice

People, People
People, people, people
People, People
People, people
