Lyrics

[Verse 1] Mr president, this is for the people who you're tryna fool This is for the people so it's time to school This is for the cronies who admire you: you wanna see a chicken run? I'll drown you in your firepool 783 charges - you're liable This heightening crisis is undeniable Sick tired and we see through the wool that you're tuna pull You're diabolical I'm bout to hit you with a fireball The people tryna get free All These squalid politicians are balling like they're carefree Mr president can you hear me, hear me Don't pretend we don't remember Khwezi We gonna get you in the streets, the courts and in parliament Now Everybody that Jacob Zuma's charlatan Concourt made you pay back moola But we still need the money that got for the armament [Chorus] Mr president, can you hear the people on the streets? See the hunger, the anger now they're praying for your defeat Marikana, Nkandla and spy tapes is deceit No surrender no retreat, no surrender no retreat! I repeat! I can see the people on the streets Calling for your head calling for your defeat Marikana, Nkandla and Arms Deal is deceit And we won't retreat, no we won't retreat! [Verse 2] Mr president, it's been a while since we last spoke To think we once I thought you were our last hope Now your yesterday's outnumber your tomorrows What do you think about when you're all alone Mr president the walls are closing Could have been a noble man Applause growing thin Mr president can you see crying for help I wonder if you se the light or you're just blinding ourself Mr president you desecrated the ANC How could you abandon your bravery Howcome smile in our faces when you lie so blatantly How could you trample on the graves of those who fought courageously How many we gotta say we can't afford the fees? Mr president, 'they still discriminate racially'! How much longer can the people be told to wait patiently We need a be free from this slavery [Chorus]
