Lyrics
Keep Pushing, Barack! You gotta walk your own road.
Keep Pushing, Barack! Go out and carry the load.
Keep Pushing, Barack! Go out and set your own speed.
Keep Pushing, Barack! You know we need you to lead.
Put your shoulder to that boulder...
Keep Pushing, Barack! x4
Keep Pushing, Barack! It's your place, now's the time.
Keep Pushing, Barack! For a rose and a rhyme.
Keep Pushing, Barack! Progressives, moderates too.
Keep Pushing, Barack! Wanna keep faith with you.
Put your shoulder to that boulder...
Keep Pushing, Barack! x4
Now the right doesn't care, they won't give and they won't share. Cutting taxes for the rich, the rest of us are stuck in a ditch.
Keep Pushing, Barack!
Keep Pushing, Barack! You know we gotta press on.
Keep Pushing, Barack! Because yesterday's gone.
Keep Pushing, Barack! Ready: one, two, three...
Keep Pushing, Barack! Come on and push it with me!
Put your shoulder to that boulder...
Keep Pushing, Barack! Cause there's work left to do!
Keep Pushing, Barack! And I'm standing with you!
Keep Pushing, Barack! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Keep Pushing, Barack! Come on and push it with me!
Keep Pushing, Barack! Right, right now!
