Letter To Iran Lyrics

Grateful to be in the States

The 90's we made an escape

So worried from watching our fate

To livin' to see better days

I wish I could go grab my people

Folks are deserted like Eagle

All of the warfare is lethal

Now we try threading the needle

Iran is in desperate shambles

To live there is takin' gambles

The laws are too strict to handle

Each day is a different scandal

A lack of democracy, not even hard to see

Can't stand to watch my people beatin' it's so hard for me

All these Sharia laws, let's take some time to pause,

The Revolution set us back let's call out all the flaws

Making women cover up everything from head to toe

Forcin' this doesn't help anything just to let you know

These politicians should stop caring 'bout nuclear strikes

Put your attention into providing a better life

For every person in Iran who's out there struggling

'Cause they got loved ones and little ones so much juggling

Government isolation, ain't no communication

I pray to make it big so I can come and lead the nation

Folks in the Middle East, the belly of the beast

Mommas and the children be crying they're just tryna feast

Majority of my family still holdin' it down

And even with the restrictions I never seen 'em frown

They wanna draft me just to have someone attack me

In a war that doesn't matter, the higher ups just be laughin'

It's innocent people dyin' and babies that get to cryin'

Think back to 2009, the demonstrations and riots

I never forgot how they did all of my people so dirty

Rest In Peace Neda Soltan, she couldn't make it to thirty

Politics be grotesque, killin' us in protests

Confusing times don't even know who we should even vote next

All I can do is send prayers to the whole population

Takin' it day by day but Lord knows it's so hard to be patient

Ageh to Iran hasti movaseb bosh

Harooz daran mikoshan

Asabam khourt shodeh
