Just another promise Just another task Just another mission Just another politician Saying its the cost of recession I know Don't explain me the cost I've been here for years Fighting behind my tears I'm a poor boy Led by rich sons Telling me how to kill a younger one I hate you More than I hate him Because you care less about my poor son The adolescent Who joined to escape poverty And oppression Just like me Red or Blue There is no difference in definition To me, you're all Just another Politician
