Lyrics
I MADE A PROMISE
I made a promise to the people it?s a big deal
Fight corruption fight fight fight the leaders steal the money
Let me give you an example if you?re interested in helping the poor
Really isn?t all that complicated so my proposal is this
Poverty and Despair it?s really sad when you think about it
Chaos and suffering it helps lift our soul
Poverty and despair it?s really sad Chaos and suffering
When you think about it it helps lift our soul
Save lives Special if you?re truly commiteed
let me give you an an example we?re spending a lot of your money
five dollars Probably could use some of that myself
Really isn?t all that complicated so my proposal is this
Poverty and Despair Chaos and suffering it helps lift our soul
It?s really sad when you think about it
Poverty and Despair hard way to make a living
when you?re growin corns and beans
tough tough tough way to make a livin?
five five five dollars a week
(if you?re interested in helping the poor people)
Special hard hard hard way to make a living growin corns and beans
I made a promise it?s a big deal Clean Coal
It?s gonna transform the world
I made a promise it?s a big deal
Poverty and Despair Chaos and suffering
It helps lift our soul really sad really sad
When you think about it (2x)
Really isn?t that complicated so my proposal is this
?it?s in our interests I made a promise to the people
