What About Us

What About Us by Pink addresses unfulfilled promises and broken expectations in the relationship between world leaders and the public. Its a call for action, questioning the leaders about when they will start caring for the ordinary people. Released as the lead single from Pinks seventh studio album, Beautiful Trauma, in 2017, the song was written by Pink, Steve Mac, and Johnny McDaid.
