She said she goin be first and the next
To lead the eagle out the nest
A man say he goin build a wall
And have Mexico pay for it all
And there's a riot every week
The uniforms blue and the peoples on the streets
And everyone's living on edge
Cause you could be the next one walking with the dead
If I was President
I'll get elected on Friday
Assassinated on Saturday
Buried on Sunday
And on Monday everybody goes back to work
It's just an ordinary day
Ayyy
But I could be the president
And you could be the president
And she could be the president
And we could be the president
(He could be the president)
Her t-shirt says Black Life Matter
The media is screamin All Lives Matters
Johnny got a gun up in his hand
Walk into the school
And then they hear bang bang
And Susanna from Alabama
Can't walk no more
Cause she lost two legs in the war
In the U.N say they looking for the peace
All y'all gotta do is smoke a little bit of weed (ha)
They don't want me to tell you about the secrecy
They don't want me to tell you bout the conspiracy
They wanna put a hole in my head like Kennedy
If I was President
I'll get elected on Friday
Assassinated on Saturday
Buried on Sunday
And on Monday everybody goes back to work
It's just an ordinary day
Ayyy
But I could be the president
And you could be the president
And she could be the president
And we could be the president
If I was president
