Mr. Washington
[Verse 1]
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 see while swimming that they are free

Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo

[Verse 2]
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 word: "Move Westward"
[Chorus]
Well I've thrown myself to the stratosphere
I've thrown my heart to the atmosphere
And now these words are comin' outta my ears
"How did I end up here?"
"How did I end up here?"
"How did I end up here?"
"How did I end up here?"

Woo!

[Verse 3]
Me and ol' 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...

Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo doo
Fa doo doo doo doo doo
[Verse 4]
Mr. Thomas Jefferson do you have any good suggestions?
I'm trying to stay hopeful, but I got all this frustration
I wanna see my future get progressively better
I wanna see a world where equality is what matters
Let's make the call and move forward (Move forward!)

[Chorus]
I've thrown myself to the stratosphere
I've thrown my heart to the atmosphere
And now these words are comin' outta my ears
"How did I end up here?"
"How did I end up here?"
"How did I end up here?"
"How did I end up here?"

[Chorus 2]
Well I've thrown myself to the stratosphere
I'll thrown my heart to the atmosphere
And now these words you've been longing to hear
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"

[Over first half of trumpet solo]
Yeah
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
[Over piano]
Yeah
Medicine for the People
Passion for equality
Quality of life
For justice and for liberation of all
Circle up warriors, circle up

[Outro: Nahko, Bailey + choir]
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
"This is how you got here"
