verse
Were you ever taught when you were young?
If you mess with things selfishly, they′re bound to come undone?
I'm not the only one
That′s been affected and resented every story you've spun
And I'm a lucky one
′Cause they are people worse off that have suffered enough
Haven′t they suffered enough?
But you can't get enough of
Shutting down systems for pеrsonal gain
Fightin′ fires with liars and prayin' for rain
Do you get off on pain?
We′rе not pawns in your game
chorus
Commander in chief, honestly
If I did the things you do
I couldn't sleep, seriously
Do you even know the truth?
We′re in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in chief, how does it feel to still be able to breathe?
verse
We were taught when we were young
If we fight for what's right, there won't be justice for just some
Won′t give up, stand our ground
We′ll be in the streets while you're bunkerin′ down
Loud and proud, best believe
We'll still take a knee while you′re
chorus
Commander in chief, honestly
If I did the things you do
I couldn't sleep, seriously
Do you even know the truth?
We′re in a state of crisis, people are dying
While you line your pockets deep
Commander in chief, how does it feel to still be able to breathe?
Be able to breathe

Won't give up, stand our ground
We'll be in the streets while you′re bunkerin′ down

We′ll be in the streets while you're
chorus
