Let my people go Let my people go In the swamps of New Orleans The rain came pouring down So heavy was the water That the walls came crashing down Now I know a survivor But how the hell you justify Leaving 100,000 people in water that high Just struggling for their lives I know there's got to be a Better way I know there's got to be a Better way I know there's got to be a Better way And we've got to find it (Stand up) we've got to find it (Or fall down) we've got to find it Politicians are screaming They say we've got a reason for war So many people are dying And we ain't even sure what for Is it because he's a Muslim? Tell me is it democracy or is it the oath It's on the news every day One paycheck away And the President's on the golf course I know there's got to be a Better way I know there's got to be a Better way I know there's got to be a Better way And we've got to find it (You got to stand together) we've got to find it (Or we could fall apart) we've got to find it Sweet buttered craw dad Delta bread Hot pepper soul that's been sold out Lives that were taken before they found out What life was all about He's a genius with the lyrics Started young sipping syrup And it hurts me to my soul The way he drinks away the pain The world's going to lose him Another young superhero We've got to find it x8 I see the children on TV It's become a sign of the times Glorifying their bodies Something just don't feel right Still we keep pretending That boys and girls are men and women We watch it and we call it entertainment And everything is okay as long as somebody's getting paid I know there's got to be a Better way I know there's got to be a Better way There's got to be a Better way And we've got to find it We've got to find it We've got to find it
