作词 : Batson, Carter, DeCurtis, Fumo ...
The damage here along the gulf coast is catastrophic
There's a frantic effort under way tonight to find
Survivors There are an uncounted number of the dead tonight
People are being forced to live like animals
We are desperate
No one says the federal government is doing a good job
And hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people
No water I fought my country for years
We need help we really need help
In Baghdad they they drop they air drop water food to people
Why can't they do that to their own people
The same idiots that can't get water into a major American city
In less than three days are trying to
Win a war
People was poor before the hurricane came
But the down pour poured is like when Mary J sang
Every day it rains so every day the pain
But ignored them and showed em the risk was to blame
For life is a chain cause and effected
****** off the chain because they affected
It's a dirty game so whatever is effective
From **** to selling kane gotta put that in effect
Wouldn't you loot if you didn't have the loot
Baby needed food and you stuck on the roof
Helicopter swooped down just to get a scoop
Through his telescopic lens but he didn't scoop you
The next five days no help ensued
They called you a refugee because you seek refuge
The commander-in-chief just flew by
Did he stop No he had a couple seats
Just proved jet blue he's not
Jet flew by the spot
What if he ran out of jet fuel and just dropped
Hu That woulda been something to watch
Helicopters doing fly-bys to take a couple of shots
Couple of portraits then ignored 'em
He'd be just another bush surrounded by a couple orchids
Poor kids just 'cause they were poor kids
Left 'em on they porches same old story in New Orleans
Silly rappers because we got a couple Porches
MTV stopped by to film our fortresses
We forget the unfortunate
Sure I ponied up a mill but I didn't give my time
So in reality I didn't give a dime or a damn
I just put my monies in the hands of the same people
That left my people stranded
Nothin' but a bandit
Left them folks abandoned
Damn that money that we gave was just a band-aid
Can't say we better off than we was before
In synopsis this is my minority report
Can't say we better off than we was before
In synopsis this is my minority report
So many times I'm covering my eyes
Peeking through my fingers
Tryin' to hide my frustration at the way that we treat
(Seems like we don't even care)
Turn on the TV seein' the pain
Sayin' such a shame
Then tryin' to go on with my life
Of that I too am guilty
(Seems like we don't even care)
So we send a lil' money tell 'em it's alright
To be able to sleep at night
You will pay that price
While some of these folks' lost their whole life
(Seems like we don't even care)
Now it wasn't on the nightly news no more
Suddenly it didn't matter to you no more
In the end almost nothing changed
What the hell what was that for
(Seems like we don't even care)
Buses are on the way to take those people from New Orleans to Houston
They lyin'
People are dying at the convention center
Their government has failed them
George Bush doesn't care about black people
