Solidarity Steve

Our society has seen more cuts than a surgeons table
we’re tinkering on the brink our society isn’t stable
so god help you if you’re not the most able
What we’re witnessing is biblical yet this aint no fable

There ain’t no happy endings for the poor
War and disease while they do as they please
Champagne caviar dripping on a glass ceiling
Our only view the door slamming shut

Look but don’t touch
Poverty ain’t no lottery
no pot luck we’re always stuck
Too tired fending hand to mouth
to fight from mouth to mind
and this is all by design

The system is enslaved to these machine men
the machinations of these Machiavellian vampires
Money making money laundering soul destroyers
Buzzwords and soundbites puncture wounds to the mind
Try find where democracy freedom and inequality hide
point me in the right direction and we’ll see whose blind

Call it the rat race
We come from behind
Never finishing first
when your working class
