Obama

Dark minds blasted The color of your skin But you've won this country With all its bursting madness You've showed that it is nevertheless At the summit of our human world I know you are not a Messiah Or a miracle-mongering wizard And I don't have the illusion Of changing the world in an instant What's important is This is the first step And when you come to a crossing You'll stay on the right path
