I Miss You

writes the author ( snowflake): "Admiral Bob suggested I contribute this track to the Strike the Root Remix Project - where ccMixter is remixing Larry Lessig and other Rootstrikers.

In Nov 2010, I received an email asking folks to create videos saying "I Miss You" to Barack Obama. I started crying. I miss honor. I miss truth — from the bailouts to quantitative easings, from subsidized Naked TSA Scanners to HAMP/Mortgage Fraud. The list goes on and on.

What is happening in my country? What is happening in our world? Are we all sleeping? I'm not good at making videos, but I wrote and recorded this little ditty to share my feelings.Thanks for listening."

I Miss You (lyrics)

I miss you, where are you hiding?
Miss you, your soul's not lighting up now
I miss you and the hope once shining through you

Did someone hurt you? Did you give into bribery?
Did fear wrap around you Did power strong-arm liberty?

I would forgive you if you would be the change again
And I could support you if freedom rang aloud again

You're missing where men with courage stand
Somehow you're missing will you listen now?

I miss you overturning exec
Misuse of commander and chief signature
But now you're doling out the dollars

But I would forgive you if you would be the change again
And I could support you if freedom rang aloud again

You're missing where men with courage stand
Somehow you're missing will you listen now?
Will you listen now?

I"m afraid to fly where nothing's sacred
Afraid to trust this House of Bankers
Made a lie of justice is she blind?
Well, I'm in terror now

Did someone hurt you? Did you give into bribery?
Did fear wrap around you? Did power strong-arm liberty?

I would forgive you if you would be the change again
And I could support you if freedom rang aloud again

You're missing where men with courage stand
Somehow you're missing will you listen now?
Will you listen now?

I miss you will you listen now
I miss you will you listen now
I miss you will you listen now will you listen now
