Rolls Royces,limousines
And other artificial means
To elevate one's self esteem
And prove that they've realized their dreams
Are reserved for but a few
As the following will explain to you
For everyday that we're alive
We always struggle,always strive
For that which we can't attain
Which often leads to self disdain
In a world defined by greed
Where the privileged take from those in need
Corruption,it seems,everywhere one goes
The guilty immune to the dangers they pose
The innocent haven't even a voice
Not to mention so much as a choice
Most are hypocrites,some are traitors
As are those to whom they cater
They see themselves as deities
Superior to You and Me
Though,in the end,inferior
When exploring their interior
That of which can be seen through
By only the selected few
Enduring every waking hour
Knowing that we have no power
We have no choice but to submit
To these endless politics
Just when we think that they are done
We realize that they've just begun
But we cannot give up the fight
Though it's clear to us this is our plight
Asian,Jewish,Black and White
Who struggle,but go on despite
There being no end in sight
To that which I've written has brought to light
