My Petition - Jill Scott

You say you mean good for me

But you don't do it

You say you have a plan but

You just don't go thru with it

You say you know the way to go

And I should follow

But all of your empty promises

Leave me hollow

And oh

How do I trust you

How do I love you

When you

Lie to me repeatedly

And oh

How do I have faith in you

When you just don't come thru

Like you say you could

Oh say can you see

Oh say can you see

You say that I'm wrong for

Stating my opinion to you

You say I'm wrong and

There'll be quiet consequences too

But I know my rights babe

There'll be no law abridging

The freedom of my speech

Or the right for me to

Petition for a remedy of grievances

And I want to trust you

I want to love you yeah

But you lie to me repeatedly

And oh I want to have faith in you

But you just don't come thru

Like you said you could

Like you said you could

Oh say can

Say can you see

Hmmm

I want fresh fruit clean water

Air that I don't see

I want the feeling of being

Safe on my streets

I want my children to be smarter than me

I want I want to feel

I want to feel I want to feel free

For real ya'll

I'm just telling you so you know

I want to I want to have faith in you

I really do but you keep lying to me

And it hurts

I believe I believe you owe it to me

Give it to me like you said you would

Hmmm

Oh say can

Say can you see you see

Hmmm

Oh tell me can you see

Hmmm

Oooh tell

Say can you see

Tell me now can you see

Hmmm

By the dawn's early light

Oh say can you see
