Lyrics: [Verse 1] Prices keep climbing, rent’s out of reach Hospitals full, schools stretched thin Working folks pay while the line gets long And the ones who broke in walk free again [Chorus] Listen to the people, stop the endless fight Citizens first, that’s the only right Illegal crossings, blood on the street Lazy judges turning them loose on the beat We see the damage, we feel the cost Listen to the people before more is lost [Verse 2] A name on the news, another life gone Family left crying, justice takes too long Fraud drains the system, scams hit the home While honest hands carry the load alone [Chorus] Listen to the people, stop the endless fight Citizens first, that’s the only right Illegal crossings, blood on the street Lazy judges turning them loose on the beat We see the damage, we feel the cost Listen to the people before more is lost [Bridge] Ain’t about color, ain’t about hate It’s about law and the price we all pay Border, the courtroom, the empty chair Fix what’s broken or none of us share [Final Chorus] Listen to the people, stop the endless fight Citizens first, that’s the only right Enforce the law, hold the line tight No more soft hands turning danger loose at night We see the damage, we feel the cost Listen to the people… before more is lost
