Barack Hussein Obama II (i/bəˈrɑːk huːˈseɪn oʊˈbɑːmə/; born August 4, 1961) is the 44th and current President of the United States. He is the first African American to hold the office. In January 2005, Obama was sworn in as a U.S. Senator in the state of Illinois. He would hold this office until November 2008, when he resigned following his victory in the 2008 presidential election.
Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the president of the Harvard Law Review. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney in Chicago and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. He served three terms representing the 13th District in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004.
Following an unsuccessful bid against the Democratic incumbent for a seat in the United States House of Representatives in 2000, Obama ran for the United States Senate in 2004. Several events brought him to national attention during the campaign, including his victory in the March 2004 Illinois Democratic primary for the Senate election and his keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004. He won election to the U.S. Senate in Illinois in November 2004. His presidential campaign began in February 2007, and after a close campaign in the 2008 Democratic Party presidential primaries against Hillary Rodham Clinton, he won his party's nomination. In the 2008 presidential election, he defeated Republican nominee John McCain, and was inaugurated as president on January 20, 2009. Nine months later, Obama was named the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate. In April 2011, he announced that he would be running for re-election in 2012.
Text me but you need a call
I text you back but what is that?
You text me back but hold on
I'm about to relay what's going on
Text me but you missed the call
I call you back but why is that?
You call me back but hold on
I had a bud of mine, I say what's going on
The volume's turned up too loud but we don't cover our ears
Because they're already numb from damage already done
And then the temperature goes from unbelievably high
To let the temperature from the very heart of the sun
The volume's turned up too loud but we don't cover our ears
Because they're already numb from damage already done
And then the temperature goes from unbelievably high
To let the temperature from the very heart of the sun
You call me to play me the sound
I text you back but where is that?
You call me back but hold on
I'll put the phone right up to the PA
The speaker's distorted through the phone
You call me back but why is that?
I call you back but what's that?
I can't hear a single word you say
The day is turning to night
I'll never forget what you said
I text you again, again
You need to send it to me again
The volume's turned up too loud but we don't cover our ears
Because they're already numb from damage already done
And then the temperature goes from unbelievably high
To let the temperature from the very heart of the sun
The volume's turned up too loud but we don't cover our ears
Because they're already numb from damage already done
And then the temperature goes from unbelievably high
To let the temperature from the very heart of the sun
Text me but you need a call
The volume's turned up too loud but we don't cover our ears
Because they're already numb from damage already done
And then the temperature goes from unbelievably high
To let the temperature from the very heart of the sun
The volume's turned up too loud but we don't cover our ears
Because they're already numb from damage already done
And then the temperature goes from unbelievably high
