[Intro: Reporters & Citizens]
"Today President Obama declared Flint, Michigan a disaster area."
"We're getting poisoned water, and we have no rights."
"The children’s blood tests revealed high exposure to lead."
"Go to that school, where that kid's gotta drink that water right now!"
"They say, 'Why don’t you just move?' Most of us don't have a choice. We're stuck here."
"Damage from lead is irreversible."
"I declare a federal emergency in Flint."
[Verse 1: David Gunn & Citizens]
I come from a place where
Trouble lives there
Crime is everywhere
They ask why I stay here
'Cause I ain't built to run
Not from a smoking gun
Not from the government
Not from anyone
My skin's too thick and I don't fear death;
I was raised in the belly of the beast
They got our names in their mouth
’Cause of our struggle again
Flint, Flint, Flint Michigan
