Me and Mr. Washington go forth with no real direction Dreaming of the day we drive our cars into the ocean And all the people looking on will wonder what to say

And live confused about us 'til the day they do the same And they will see while swimming that they are free Reach for a solace I find only in my brother sky We are relieved to know that someday this will pass us by And it's got us feeling quite alright We have no money and we certainly have lost focus Why have we landed on a planet that's as hopeful as this We've heard the words "move westward" Well I've thrown myself to the stratosphere I'll throw my heart to the atmosphere And now these words are coming outta my ears: "How did I end up here?" me and old Napoleon cry "Liberty, Oh Liberty" The crimes committed in your name have brought me to my knees And now I'm trembling Malcolm, brother Malcolm there's an X upon my door tonight Wish you were here to teach this generation how to fight Enough of all this talking Well . . . Mr. Thomas Jefferson do you have any good suggestions I'm trying to stay hopeful but I've got all this frustration I wanna see my future get progressively better I want to see a world where equality is what matters Let's make the call and move forward (move forward!) Well I've thrown myself to the stratosphere I'll throw my heart to the atmosphere And now these words are coming outta my ears: "How did I end up here?" I've thrown myself to the stratosphere I'll throw my heart to the atmosphere And now these words you've been longing to hear: "This is how you got here" Medicine For the People We believe in freedom for all No matter what color you are or where you're from Or who your forefathers were We believe the time is now for it is all we have Coming together in a sacred way Here, as warriors Waging justice with instruments of truth Medicine For the People Passion for equality, quality of life, For justice and liberation for all Circle up warriors, circle up This is how you got here
