Emmanuel Jal - Every Child's Plate (Feat. Paul Lindley & Tanika Charles) lyrics

Intro “And in today's news It seems that nobody sought With enough cause or fight To help kids see the results of each bite With their sugary, fat laden processed food Would shorten their lives and alter their moods.” Verse 1 I'm coming, speaking, attacking, lobbying Upset by the kids being cheated on their eating Spitting this song for a world widemeeting Attention everybody coz we gonna make a turning Corporates perverting demand and supply Manipulating people souls to comply There are policies affectingkids food Politics cynical we all got screwed I call on the cities to stand and get ready Bad food moving fast and very steady Get theright food on every child plate Before we wake up and find it's too late Chorus Poverty's man made, nothing new I say My soul is saying I've got to give more And I've got to be the change X2 Verse 2 My brothers and sisters filled with hunger Because no leader has lifted a finger But we could and we should and we would save faces By moving all the food into the right places Give children hope today so they shall Live life full, fulfill potential A legacy everybody could bestow Give the right food for children to grow A screwed up system now we have created Economics, logistics, are overrated Ma** production on a world wide scale Too many kids' health totally failed Chorus Poverty's man made, nothing new I say My soul is saying I've got to give more And I've got to be the change X2 Bridge Hoo hoo ayoo ayoo ayoo No no no no Hoo hoo eyele eyele eyele eyele eyele eyelei X 2 Verse 3 Some kids starve the world overseas Some eating wrong food, becoming obese Poor understanding what food is right Parents work blindly not seeing the light That shows clearly their sons and daughters Ain't eating the kind of food they order Poor knowledge, their kids become fat When society could have stopped all of that Giving kids right to start a better life Living life without this kind of strife Daily battles against weight gain Insults, bullies, hurt and the pain It's mad, dumb, totally insane I believe we can start again Every child right food to eat Poverty, obesity we shall defeat Chorus Poverty's man made, nothing new I say My soul is saying I've got to give more And I've got to be the change X2
