Related: About this forumIf 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
Dont you know you have a voice?
People, People
Dont 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
Cant be taken back
You watch them grow and then youll know
How much youve been lead
Oh how can you say theres nothing wrong
when its gone on too long?
People, People
What more can I say?
Lets get ourselves together
Too much at stake to look away
Dont buy him dont bump for her
Shes likely to be bought
Dont buy her dont vote for him
Powers his only thought
Confusion and disillusion
Proud of your mind
Until a big decision is too hard to find
How can you say theres nothing wrong?
When its going on too long
People, People
They said youd free your mind
People, People
Dont you think its about time?
How can you say theres nothing wrong?
When its gone on too long
People, People
Dont you know you have a voice?
People, People
Dont you know you have a choice
People, People
People, people, people
People, People
People, people
