It's a shame when somebody shows,
|
Diamonds and pearls to those you don't,
|
This goes out to the wealthy homes,
|
That under the moonlight there's a road,
|
To a place for the struggling,
|
Where people treat you like a human being,
|
Free of racism and other things,
|
Free from money and the imagery,
|
Why oh why has it come to be?
|
People look up to celebrities,
|
They do nothing for you and me,
|
They should be giving it up to the community,
|
And this ain't just domestic man,
|
This is a world wide problem and,
|
Still people kill for the oil ya,
|
Why you ask? Well cause there's demand,
|
But stay on top says the businessman,
|
And let the world be left to strand,
|
Hey next month I'll make twice the grand,
|
Things they are going just as planned,
|
And he'll spend most of it on what he sees,
|
Maybe buy something he may never need,
|
See now this is the mentality,
|
Wake up call this is reality
|
You see now this is the mentality,
|
Wake up call this is reality
|
Yesterday I saw a man explain,
|
Why he bought his seventh car to date,
|
How does it feel to live the life you like,
|
With millions of us left without a ride?
|
And yet we look up to the stars and dream,
|
What's it's like to live among elite,
|
I see the future in a rut,
|
With the poorest of the people in the mud
|
Well here's a message Mr. Business man,
|
The more you make the more the gap expands,
|
The more you give the more the love you land,
|
The more you take the more we suffer man,
|
But he'll spend most of it on what he sees,
|
Maybe buy something he may never need,
|
See now this is the mentality,
|
Wake up call this is reality
|
You see now this is the mentality,
|
Wake up call this is reality
|
