0:02There's nothing rich folks love more

1:36I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine
1:39So men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
1:41You want a revolution I want a revelation
1:44So listen to my declaration
1:46We hold these truths to be self-evident
1:48That all men are created equal
1:50And when I meet Thomas Jefferson

2:26That all men are created equal
