So many lives destroyed by greed
Too many hungry mouths to feed.
The rich blame the poor for being lazy and feckless
The poor blame the rich for being greedy and reckless.

The wealthiest hide funds in offshore accounts
The poor must work harder for meagre amounts
People are divided so the markets may prosper
Whilst queues at foodbanks continue to grow longer

Refugees escape from terror and wars.
Dreaming of landing on welcoming shores.
Condemned by the government, who say they can’t stay
Yet happily collect all the taxes they pay

Governments are chosen by media manipulation
Then fight their cause with enhanced reputations.
Our press is controlled by the wealthiest few.
So, who really decides what we see in the news?

These are political issues, but many don't care.
Yet the wealth divide remains massively unfair.
Too many believe there’s no other choice
So, stand up and be heard, coz we all have a voice.
